ERROR **** PGGP **** G-VECTOR NOT FOUND IN PREVIOUS DENSITY MATRIX

job314

HI all, I am trying to restart Raman calculation since it ran out of time. I am getting this strange error, all I did was I added RESTART keyword and initially it ran OK

I think the problem is somewhere since I ran the frequency with full optimization calculation. Then I deleted optimization keywords from FREQCALC and added RESTART. See the files, is there a way to restart it?

here are the files, again original run was FREQCALC with geometry optimization, for restart I deleted optimization keywords and added RESTART

Hi,

Let's try to fix one of these restart issues at a time.

As you know (I put it here for other readers as well), to restart a FREQCALC calculation we need the RESTART keyword, as below:

FREQCALC
RESTART
END

All keywords related to the calculation of the intensities from the initial job should be kept in the new input as well.

In order to make this restart work, you need a few files from the previous job to be placed in the scratch folder of the new job: FREQINFO.DAT, fort.13 and fort.9 (to be renamed fort.20 in the new folder).

As such, I am unable to try to restart your job because I need these three files from the previous run. If you have them you can try to restart and/or send me the files.

Let's see how this goes.

The point that you make about the geometry may also be relevant. Given that your original calculation was also performing a geometry optimization, when you do the restart calculation you must ensure that the geometry specified in the new input is the optimized one from the previous run.

I just go impatient and started the calculation from scratch again... It's about to finish... That has been my general experience with restarts, something goes wrong and it is easier to restart the whole calculation... This is because when I restart - and I just tried that for a different job - SCFOUT calculations become conducting and won't converge anymore whereas if I start form scratch, everything works

aerba

Whatever works, I guess

SCFOUT becoming conducting drives me crazy, normal frequency calculation that run perfectly, after restart, becomes conducting and stops converging SCF
