CCL:G: Iodine basis set



Hi
I think yours is more of a format problem. You said you copied the **** string as well as the basis set. When using the GEN keyword in gaussian you must skip the first four stars and just keep them to mark the end of each basis set for each element.
For example:

charge multiplicity
coordinates
blank line
basis set
****
basis set for next element
****
blank line

I hope this might be of help.

Cheers!

Dear Andrzej,

It's very likely that ExtraBasis keyword does not work properly - I
replaced it in your command line with GEN keyword and than the job
works fine (below coordinates lines you have to paste basis sets for
all atoms you have).

The command line is: #P B3LYP/gen Int=Ultrafine pseudo=cards - it has
pseudo=cards since the basis set you want to use has also
pseudopotential (below references on EMSl page). I hope it will help
you :-)

Good luck,
Basia
