Excuse me for some typos and misprints !; I revised them carefully. Again, I got the "linear dependence" error for (~ 200 atoms) and "gradient out of range" error for (~10 atoms). For (~ 10 atoms) as I said before I had examined the Job using SBKJC and the structure was optimized without any problem. Also the position of atoms and the bond distances seems ordinary. Attached please find my input and output files.
