 Hi all!

      Did anyone compile omnisol1.0.1 in linux 6.0(RedHat) successfully?,
and how to modify omnisol.compile?
 
Thanks a lot!

Subject: Help!: BaO optimization with GAMESS

Hi all:

I'm tring to perform a geometry optimization and hessian analysis for BaO with GAMESS. Unfortunately, SCF never converge, which I can not figure out.

It would be greatly appreciated if you could check my input file given as follow, and drop me a line of advice. 

Please send message to me directly by the email address " taeyun@mail.com " as this would only be interested in to a person like me who is a beginer in computational chmistry.

Many thanks in advance.

Yeon Ami

OK. I had a bit of time to potter about on a Sunday morning from home,
so here is what I did and some advice about how to handle this type of
problem. I am copying to CCL as others might want to add to what I 
say. I'll put the final result in a FAQ on my gamess page at:-

http://lacebark.ntu.edu.au/gamess/

1. Never run a runtyp=optimize case from guess=huckel unless it is
the most trivial of organic molecule (all 1st row atoms). Always
get a single point to converge first and use the $VEC group from
the PUNCH file (*.dat) with guess=moread.

2. Always run a exetyp=check. This gave a warning about the geometry
which in hindsight I should perhaps have followed up first.

3. If straight guess=huckel does not converge try different convergence
methods, such as level shifting (shift=.T.) and diis=.T. 

4. For heavy atoms sometimes guess=hcore works better.

5. Use symmetry. For BaO we expect the px and py MOs to be degenerate
so I used C4v.

I simplified the input to use straight cartesians as these are
usually the best and easiest for linear molecules.

In this case I remembered a problem with guess=huckel for ECP so
I went straight to guess=hcore with diis=.T. and shift=.T. You have 
to turn off soscf - soscf=.F. I raised maxit although this rarely
works. It did not in this case. I then lowered R to 1.62. It then 
converged in 23 iterations. 

At this point and only at this point, you can start an optimize
run as below. It gave a final R of 2.356.

Note I commneted out $FORCE and $STATPT as neither is really needed.
