THE NUMBER OF DETERMINANTS HAVING SPACE SYMMETRY AU
IN POINT GROUP C2H  WITH SZ=  0.0 IS              0
THE DETERMINANT FULL CI REQUIRES      334295 WORDS
SMALL CI MATRIX, JUST USING INCORE DIAGONALIZATION...

***** ERROR *****
INPUT NSTATE=  50 EXCEEDS HAMILTONIAN DIMENSION    0

This is why I use ISTSYM=2. I get the same message with ISTSYM=3 but with Bg instead of Au.
