[Pw_forum] "segmentation fault" in new version of ubuntu

2010-09-14 Thread mohnish pandey
Dear QE users!
  Previously I was using QE on UBUNTU-9.04, it was
working fine with that. But now I am using UBUNTU -10.04 . I started doing
vc-relax calculation but it is
'segmentation fault'. Can anybody please help me.
Thanks alot in advance

you need to look into output file and see what the error

So you can confirm that with this cutoff it works, do you?

Why do you want to do so?

If the cutoff id too low the forces are not described correctly and the 
ralaxation algorithm might fail to converge.

Besides increasing the cutoff, you might need to decrease this threshold on 
order for the forces to be perfectly consistent with the total energy.

???
You are confusing number of states with number of electrpnic steps and perhaps 
also with ionic steps. Please spend some time reading the manual and some 
examples or tutorials.

If you are not sure, you can treat your system as metallic with a small 
smearing and then, if it turns out to have a gap, reduce/remove the smearing.

[Pw_forum] prob with cppp.x in QE-4.2.1

2010-09-14 Thread Somesh Kumar Bhattacharya
Hi All,

Am facing a problem with the cppp.x. in version QE-4.2.1 installed in cineca
sp6.

I have a negatively charged system n(H2O) + excess electron.

After electronic minimization, when I tried to calculate the spin charge
density with cppp.x, am getting the following error :
   task #13
 from  cppp  : error # 1
  IONS not found in data-file.xml

My input file for cppp.x is :

  prefix = 'h2o-EE',
  fileout = 'chg-spin-elec',
  output = 'xsf',
  outdir = './',
  lcharge = .TRUE.
  ndr = 52,
  charge_density = 'spin',
  atomic_number(1) = 8, atomic_number(2) = 1,
/


Can anybody tell me what is the source of the problem?

Regards

Somesh

[Pw_forum] problem using ld1.x

2010-09-14 Thread Lorenzo Paulatto
Dear Parwana,
if you set rel_dist to 'average', for a full-relativistic configuration,  
then the states with j=l-1/2 and those with j=l+1/2 will be filled with  
the same number of electrons **per orbital**.

More precisely (I'm reading from the code) if you 0<=N<=6 electrons in n  
orbital with l=L they will be split betwee the -1/2 and the +1/2 in the  
following way:

occ(L-1/2) = N * (2*L) / (2*(2*L+1))
occ(L+1/2) = N * (2*(2*L+1)) / (2*L)

which in your specific case gives 1.6 and 2.4 respectively.

The meaning is not really clear to me, but I also don't see the point of  
using rel_dist='average', so maybe it is clear to you.

regards

[Pw_forum] problem using ld1.x

Dear all,

I am trying to build a relativistic USPP in order to check the spin-orbit 
effect on chromium.

Here is attached my input to create the USPP. However, when I run ld1.x, I get 
an error:

Could you enlight me on that error?

[Pw_forum] Problems with pw

2010-09-14 Thread ettore
Hi there,
I'm new with Quantum Espresso and I'm trying to run the examples in the 
examples_dir.
But I always got an error, namely:

Error condition encountered during test: exit status = 2
Aborting

I taught it was about the pseudopotentials, but everything seems to be 
all right.

Could someone help, me? Please

best regards

Ettore

Dear Gabriele

Thank you for your comments in pwscf forum.

I performed your suggestion that ecut is set to 32 Ry. The structure was
relaxed and  I repeated with ecut=20 , 22 Ry.
It seems that the structure did not relaxed with this point "
*
.
 ...
 the Fermi energy is-5.0636 ev

!total energy  =-262.94392529 Ry
 Harris-Foulkes estimate   =-262.94392533 Ry
 estimated scf accuracy<   0.0006 Ry

 The total energy is the sum of the following terms:

 one-electron contribution =-323.90644330 Ry
 hartree contribution  = 178.85727642 Ry
 xc contribution   =-104.02662243 Ry
 ewald contribution= -13.85257067 Ry
 smearing contrib. (-TS)   =  -0.01556530 Ry

 convergence has been achieved in   2 iterations

 Forces acting on atoms (Ry/au):


 negative rho (up, down):  0.998E-04 0.000E+00
 atom   1 type  1   force = 0.0.002237110.

 atom   3 type  1   force = 0.00165978   -0.001118560.

 Total force = 0.003608 Total SCF correction = 0.000988
 SCF correction compared to forces is too large, reduce conv_thr

 The maximum number of steps has been reached.
