Re: [QE-users] Error from calculations with NCPP+SCAN

Mon, 22 Jun 2020 02:01:24 -0700 

Hi, Fabrizio



I have successfully compiled libxc v4.3.4 with QE 6.4.1 by specifying the flags 
in DFLAGS


DFLAGS         =  -D__LIBXC 
-D__INTEL -D__FFTW3 -D__MPI -D__PARA
LD_LIBS        = 
-L/home/yons/codes/libxc-5.0.0/lib -lxcf90 -lxc



It seems that libxc v5.0.0 does not work with QE 6.5


Thanks

Hello,
the compatibility check of QE with the latest version v5.0.0 of libxc is still 
in progress. It will be set in the near future. For now I suggest you to keep 
using v4.3.4.
I usually link libxc in QE by adding the flags in DFLAGS, IFLAGS and LD_LIBS in 
the make.inc file (you can follow the comments inside) generated in the main 
folder after the configuration.
If the problem persists, let us know.

Best regards,


Fabrizio

Dear user,


I compiled libxc 4.3.4 with q.e. 6.5 (develloper version) for metagga (scan) 
purpose. It works nice with ONCPP pseudopotentiel. Please see if you don't have 
compilation issues. 
Best wishes !

Dear All,


I am performing NEB calculations with NCPP+SCAN. I have installed libxc v.5.0 
on my computer and specified the library path in the .bashrc file (export 
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/home/yons/codes/libxc-5.0.0/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
). However, the neb calculations still complain about libxc with the error 
below:


&nbsp;%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; task #&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; 26
&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; from SCAN meta-GGA : error 
#&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; 1

&nbsp;%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; task #&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; 45
&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; from SCAN meta-GGA : error 
#&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; 1
&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; need LibXC v.3.0.1 or later
&nbsp;%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%



Please help me resolve this error. Thank you so much!
