Hi,
Your input does not work because analytical gradients for TDDTF are not
implemented in Gaussian. You can use numerical ones instead. For
details take a look at
http://www.ccl.net/chemistry/resources/messages/2002/04/11.009-dir/
Analytical gradients are implemented in TURBOMOLE (www.turbomole.com).
regards,
Mariusz
