Re: Error in energy calculation with 8.0.1

Hello,

if you look into output you'll find:


WARNING: COORD=CART FORCES EXETYP=CHECK

Use coord=unique

Kind regards,

An output before the SCF always seems to be ok, the geometry is read, the basis is also read even from an external file etc. I've also tried different options, multiple/single process runs but the result is always the same.
