Subject: How to switch off symmetry in g98?

Hi

I am trying to do a calculation with g98 on a molecule
that has Oh symmetry. Because I surround the molecule with
charges, I want to switch off symmetry to see how the
molecule will distort.

-Using the appropriate keywords, I get the message

"Symmetry turned off by external request.
 Sphere: Did not find three 2-fold axes
 Error termination via Lnk1e in /disk1/gaussian/g98/l202.exe."

-Switching off symmetry with "IOp(202/15=3)" , which according
 to the documentation should disable even searching for symmetry,
 gives

"Illegal overlay number 202.
 Error termination via Lnk1e in /disk1/gaussian/g98/l1.exe."

-Specifying "IOp(1/15=3)" gives the 1st message again.

-Ironically, not switching symmetry off gives

"Error permuting atoms in Fill, LPerm:
   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0
   0   0   0   0   0   0
 Symmetry turned off:
 Internal error in symmetry package."

which, after a few minimisation cycles gives the first
error message again.

Seems that one cannot win here. Comments much appreciated.

The input I used to run with several rwf files is:

#p MP2/gen maxdisk=7GB freq


Several comments:
1.-the size is given in MB to obtain a more fine grained size. Gaussian espect
an integer.
2.-keep the filenames shorts. The line has a limit of 80 characters.
3.- The gxx.inp file has a limit of around 256bytes. If you use a long 
preamble you have problems as the output going to the wrong file.
4.-DO NOT use a %scr line.

The job mentioned used: RWF= 7150.

I hope this helps.

Dear All,

I am contemplating to instal Linux on my PC and take advantage of numerous
free Comp.Chem. software available for Linux. 
What is in your opinion the best version of Linux for use with
Computational Chemistry software? 
Also, is it possible to somehow keep Windows and run on the same computer
both programs under Linux and under Windows?
Thanks very much for your help and patience with this not strictly
computational chemistry question.

The answer to the second part of the question is definitely yes.

The (relatively inexpensive) software product called System 
Commander is one solution (do a web search)

Dear CCL,

I am trying to use Gaussian98 to locate a transition state.  Using
opt=(calcfc,ts) results in two negative hessian eigenvalues, and the job
fails.  Thus I need a way to specify which mode should be followed. 
According to the manual, this can be done by specifying tvector=N where N
is the mode number.  In fact, this keyword is not even recognized.  An
alternative is to use opt=ef to select the eigenvalue following algorithm.
Unfortunately, this is limited to 50 variables, which is too small for the
molecule I'm looking at.  This leaves opt=noeigentest, in which case I
assume that the mode with the lowest eigenvalue is followed, but what if
one wants the other one? G98 prints out one eigenvector, in internal
coordinates, which is required to have a negative eigenvalue, even when
there are two or more negative eigenvalues.  What is needed is the
eigenvectors for ALL negative eigenvalues, in cartesian coordinates, so
that they can be visualized (animated) and the wrong modes identified. 
Then, at least, the geometry could be manually displaced downhill along
the modes that are not to be followed.

How does one handle this situation in G98?

Best wishes to all,

Dale

Dear Mira,

1. RedHat, Debian, and S.u.S.E. are some good examples.
2. You can find answers from

William,

	If the "second part" of the question is the running Windows and
Linux programs on the same box, you can do a dual boot using Lilo...  Just
go out to www.linux.org and they have TONS of stuff about lilo
configurations and dual boots.

	Ray.

Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit


MIPSIM 1.1.1 Release Announcement:

Our group is proud to announce the release of a new version of our
program MIPSIM.

MIPSIM is a computational system developed by the Grup de Recerca en
Informatica Medica at IMIM/UPF in order to automatically explore the
Similarities between biomolecules on the basis of molecular interaction
potentials (MIP). It is based on the ideas behind the MEPSIM program,
developed in our group during the last decade. The goal of the old
program MEPSIM was the automatic evaluation of the molecular
electrostatic potential (MEP) features and similarities within a series
of compounds.
The old MEPSIM program has been completely rewritten in a more modular
and sophisticated program called MIPSIM. The latter can be used as an
standalone program for the automatic analysis of biomolecular
similarities but it can also make use of its interfaces to well-known
external programs: a quantum mechanics package (GAMESS), a package for
the computation of molecular interaction potentials (GRID), the
statistical analysis tools developed by the Laboratorio di Chemiometria
of the Universita di Perugia , and visualization packages (INSIGHT(MSI),
gOpenMol).


     MIPSIM includes the following main modules:

         MIN: A module which allows to find automatically the MIP minima
of a molecular system. It supplies the cartesian coordinates of these
minima, their values and all the geometrical relationships between them
(distances, angles and dihedral angles). This module may use on the
quantum mechanical definition of MEP (computed with the GAMESS package),
or MIPs as computed by the program GRID.
         COMP: This module computes a similarity coefficient between the
MIP distributions of pairs of molecules and finds their relative
position that maximizes this MIP-based similarity. The program can
handle up to 100 molecules and build the corresponding pairwise
similarities matrix.

     The current version of the MIPSIM software runs under the Linux and
IRIX operating systems.

     The program is free for academia and can be obtained at

                   http://www1.imim.es/mipsim

Subject: Compiling Gaussian under RedHat

Dear Fellows,

I wonder if anyone has a Linux script for compiling Gaussian 94/98 on a RedHat
6.0 machine. I found many scripts to do so in other platforms and systems, but
I did not get the clue for RedHat.

    Any help will be appreciatted.

Subject: LCD-ECP in GAMESS


Hi,
    I'm trying to do a Localized Charge Distribution  calculation using
ECP with the two last versions of GAMESS (i.e. Jun. 99 and Dic. 98) and
the program crashes with a Bad Address error. With the version of Mar. 97
there was no problem. Is there anyone that knows how can I do this type of
calculations? or Is there anyone that knows how to make it work?

Thanks in advance.

RedHat and SuSe usually works fine, I don't know about others. Problems
usually are generated by hardware, not by distribution, check that your
computer components are supported, in particular video adapter.

No, programs that runs under Linux doesn't runs under windows and
viceversa, but you could use both OSes on the same pc; look at
Linux+NT-Loader or Linux+Win95 howto (you could find these and above
informations with a simple internet search).

Hope this help, Andrea.

Subject: latex problem with eps files


Dear CCL members

I am having difficulties in inserting eps files created by programs
running under windows (such as Origin)
in my LaTex document. Has anybody had the same problem, and maybe solved
it? ( I am using graphicx)
This question is not chemical but writing the chemistry you are doing
takes a  lot of time and effort and  therefore I hope to meet the
understanding  of the purists....
I have already checked the FAQ.

There is a program called VMware that allows you to run Windows on a
virtual machine created within Linux, i.e. to run Linux programs and
Windows applications at the same time.  See http://www.vmware.com/

May I protest a little?

First, I would like to _greatly_ thank Jochen for the excellent piece 
of info that directly answered the question.  I was not aware of 
makebst, but downloaded it and I love it!

However, I would disagree with Jochen's "gentle chiding" to go to 
an FAQ before asking a chemistry-related question here.  I, for one, 
have almost no interest in some of the postings on this list.  And, 
we all know that there are only 24 hours in a day.  Jochen's reply to 
this question made all the others worth it!

I am working on a proper makefile for Gaussian on Linux /Alpha (also
redhat, although that doesn't matter). This will make the stupid
build scripts superfluous. I'll send it to you when I finish it.

Origin creates eps files that have an extra bit of "crap" at the beginning
and end of the file.  This is due to Origin following Windows
specifications for eps rather than the proper ones :)  You need to clean
up the file by deleting any characters before the following line:

%!PS-Adobe-3.0 EPSF-3.0

and any characters after the line:

%%EOF

Just open the eps file in a text editor (vi, pico, edit, notepad, etc.)
and delete these lines and LaTeX should have no more problems.  This is a
quick fix but it works for me.  The characters that need to be deleted are
easily identified because they are usually odd math characters.

thanks,
Ruth
