Your suggestion (input_dft = 'MGGA_X_SCAN MGGA_C_SCAN') worked.


"Got the code to spit out a number" is not the same as "produced a valid result". I would wait for an answer from someone knowledgeable on this subject before spending too much CPU time in this case!

Or even better open an issue in the gitlab tracker <https://gitlab.com/QEF/q-e/-/issues> explaining why do you think that two equivalent cases are producing different outcomes. This was you'll have an answer for sure

cheers

However, I still don't understand why others could use  (input_dft = 'scan') without any problem - I searched archive and saw several examples. Also, I used SCAN pseudopotentials from QE website, so in principle I shouldn't declare input_dft option. And not declaring would result in error (as I reported).
Thanks,

    Hello Sergey,
    that is strange. I have tried some simple tests too, but I could not
    reproduce your issue. An equivalent way to activate the scan mgga
    functionals is to put:  input_dft = 'MGGA_X_SCAN MGGA_C_SCAN'
    You can try with that, but if it still doesn't work, I think I would
    need more details about your input in order to find the issue.
    Cheers

        Hello Fabrizio,
        yes, it is compiled with libxc support. Without it, pw.x
        complains immediately, that it should be compiled with Libxc
        library (or something like that).

            Hello,
            in your case (scan) that error should come out only if libxc
            has not been properly linked during compilation. Have you
            tried runs with other libxc functionals (not necessarily
            mGGA)? Do they work?
            Just in case you want to check, to properly compile with
            libxc, after the qe configuration, you have to add the
            requested flags in the make.inc file at 'DFLAGS', 'IFLAGS'
            and 'LD_LIBS' (you can follow the nearby comments).

                Hello,
                I noticed that some people run SCAN calculations with QE
                v.6.5. I tried this, but my test has failed.
                I compiled 6.5 version with LibXC-4.3.4. When I activate
                "input_dft = 'scan'" in my input file,
                I get the following error just before first scf step:
                ....

                Am I missing something? It is simple "scf" calculation
                with ONCVPSP pseudopotentials.I even tried SCAN pseudo
                without 'input_dft' option and still got the same error.
