Re^4: problem in optimizing the geometry

Gomathi
tgomathi_goms@yahoo.co.in


Dear Pavel,

Thank you for your suggestion. I will follow it and inform you.
I am trying to optimize and find the equilibrium geometry of the compound in B3LYP level.  In 631G level it was working but not in this above mentioned level.
It was running for 30min and then i got the output like that.

regards
gomathi
