Thaks, but I have tried several configurations including: * mixing_mode = 'local-TF' and 'plain' * conv_thr = 1.0D-7, 1.0D-6, 1.0D-5, 1.0D-4, 1.0D-3, 1.0D-2, 1.0D-1 and always get the same warning "SCF correction compared to forces is too large, reduce conv_thr"

Either increase it or increase the upscale parameter. regards P.S. you could also try and search the mailing list archive: <http://www.google.es/search?q=pw_forum+%22SCF+correction+compared+to+forces+is+too+large%22+site%3Ademocritos.it&btnG=Cerca> please note that the same question has been asked and answered no more than 7 days ago. -- Lorenzo Paulatto SISSA & DEMOCRITOS (Trieste) phone: +39 040 3787 511 skype: paulatz www: http://people.sissa.it/~paulatto/ ---------------------------------------------------------------- SISSA Webmail https://webmail.sissa.it/ Powered by SquirrelMail http://www.squirrelmail.org/ _______________________________________________ Pw_forum mailing list Pw_forum at pwscf.org http://www.democritos.it/mailman/listinfo/pw_forum
