Dear CCL scientists,

This is the self-answer to my own question concerning semiempirical
ADMP. After trying several possibilities of solving the problem, I now
know how to run the job.

For AM1-ADMP jobs, I was specifying like,
# AM1 ADMP Int=AM1 ...

The correct one is,
# ADMP Int=AM1 ...

Thank you very much for those who answered me very quickly.

Atsushi

VeraChem is pleased to announce the release of 

 

                                Vcharge

 

a program for computing partial charges of drug-like molecules, as described
in J. Chem. Inf. Comput. Sci. 43:1982-1997, 2003.  

 

           - input/output are SDfiles

           - VC/2004 charges accurately reproduce ESPs from quantum
calculations

           - protein and nucleic acid charges are close to those of CHARMM
and AMBER

           - requires only about 0.2 cpu second/molecule 

           - Linux and Windows versions are available

           - inexpensive, and steeply discounted for academics

           - includes free Vdisplay program (Windows) for viewing charges

Hello CCLers,

Occasionally, I have had problems running Gaussian03W in WinXP. The problem
consists of a particular link just stopping. It doesn't die, though! The
tasklist shows a CPU usage of 0% for the link, and the memory usage doesn't
change.

For example, today I realised that a 9-day Raman frequency job has stopped
on day 8. The last link in the output file is:
"Leave Link 1110.exe at Tue ...etc." - so everything seems okay.
The job has stopped on Link 1002.exe, "iterating solving the CPHF equations".
The tasklist shows a CPU usage of 0% for the link, and a memory usage of
504MB.

The computer has 1GB of Raman, and the input file is:

%chk=thpztr.chk
%mem=800MB
%nproc=1
%rwf=gxx1.rwf,2000MB,gxx2.rwf,2000MB,gxx3.rwf,2000MB
#p freq=raman int=ultrafine rb3lyp/lanl2dz geom=allcheck guess=read

On previous occasions, for example where geometry optimisations have stopped,
I just continued them on, without any problems.

Does anybody know what is happening? or why it is happening?

Noel O'Boyle

Dear ccl'ers,

What would be a good initial guess if one is doing geometry optimisations 
on a large range of similar transition metal structures?

I'm doing ub3lyp/lanl2dz calculations on Technetium compounds. These 
calculations often need a very large computational effort. Improving that 
initial guess would probably reduce the computation time. In some 
literature it says to read the inital guess from a HF calculation with the 
same basis set. But HF seems to be a really bad method for TM-systems. 
Would it be possible to reuse the wavefunction for an optimised structure 
as starting point for a similar structure? Or would it be possible to 
optimise for example a Tc(OH)4 molecule or a [TcO]2+ core, and use that 
wavefunction as an inital guess ?

thanks,

Eric

Hi CCLers,

I've been using GAMESS (version 6 may 1998) to get AIMPAC-like 
wavefunction.
I've performed a CISD optimization (1), and after that with that 
geometry and orbitals I
have done a single point calculation (2) at the same level of theory. So 
that, wfn in (1) and
(2) should be the same (actually energy remains unaltered), but AIMPAC's 
one differ
on some signs coefficients, leading to different wfns and subsequent 
different results
when treated afterwards ... Have anyone find out such a result with GAMESS?
Any idea of which wfn is supposed to be the good one?

Thanks a lot for your help,
Eduard.
