Re^3: Need help regarding using Symmetry and multiplicity both..

Dear Siddheshwar,

the most typical error is incorrectly selected unique atoms.
Please find attached correct input file with symmetry.

Kind regards,

>>>2) I was running RHF on of such cluster with C1 symmetry and even no. of electrons. It worked well. But when I added symmetry to the i/p file and added ONLY the symmetry atoms, then I got errors: a) ODD no. of electrons. Cant run RHF �and b) too many primitive bend coordinates. For around 70 atoms in total (with C1)

>>2) This means you have made some errors in your input file.
