Hi!
I tried to run the following input (which you can also find in this link, http://www.nwchem-sw.org/index.php/Release66:Gaussian_Basis_AIMD#Sample_input),

start qmd_tddft_h2o_svr
echo

H 0.00000000 -0.67863597 -0.56441201
end

end

end
end
qmd

end
task tddft qmd


However, I got this error,


Summary of "ao basis" -> "" (cartesian)

There is an error in the input file


For more information see the NWChem manual at http://www.nwchem-sw.org/index.php/NWChem_Documentation


For further details see manual section:


In principle, this input should work but does not. What is happening??

Best,

Hi, I am unable to reproduce your issue with the input from our online manual.
Can you provide more information ?

Thanks.

Hi,

I got an error file from the node,
0:qmd_input: unknown directive:Received an Error in Communication


MPI_ABORT was invoked on rank 0 in communicator MPI COMMUNICATOR 3 DUP FROM 0
with errorcode -1.

NOTE: invoking MPI_ABORT causes Open MPI to kill all MPI processes.
You may or may not see output from other processes, depending on
exactly when Open MPI kills them.




mpirun has exited due to process rank 0 with PID 10405 on
node gatchan29 exiting improperly. There are two reasons this could occur:

1. this process did not call "init" before exiting, but others in
the job did. This can cause a job to hang indefinitely while it waits
for all processes to call "init". By rule, if one process calls "init",
then ALL processes must call "init" prior to termination.

2. this process called "init", but exited without calling "finalize".
By rule, all processes that call "init" MUST call "finalize" prior to
exiting or it will be considered an "abnormal termination"

This may have caused other processes in the application to be
terminated by signals sent by mpirun (as reported here).

I can see that you are using NWChem 6.5 from this output line
/aplic/nwchem/6.5_ompi1.6.5_ifort12.1


Unfortunately, the com_step input option was introduced in NWChem 6.6.

Therefore, the only solution to your problem is to move to a more recent NWChem version (6.8 being the latest so far)
