Hi!
I was trying to run a periodic single point calculation for a 4*4*4 Ru(0001) surface with an adsorbed moiety using riper module. I used SVP basis set for adsorbed moiety atoms and ecp fr Ru, I also included the auxiliary basis set as the manual suggested. The following specifies my cell information in the control file-
$cell
10.87272 9.41606 21.50000 90.0 90.0 90.0
$periodic 3
$kpoints nkpoints 4 4 1
Since the manual didn't suggest anything different, I have the coord file as usual.
I'm also using a b-p functional and m3 grid size. I tried with SMP parallelization and ran the calculation on 24 cores, unfortunately after reading the MO's, here's where the calculation stops-
+--------------------------------------------------+
| NUMERICAL INTEGRATION |
+--------------------------------------------------+
Will use smaller grid during SCF iterations and a grid
of size 3 for the last iteration.
Integration of exchange-correlation term is performed with
Stratmann/Scuseria renormalization.
Specified sharpness parameter is .64000D+00.

Can someone help me with this? Thank you so much!
