Problem during setting up the Hückel matrix
« on: February 13, 2015, 04:29:16 PM »
Hi everyone,

I am calculating just some small molecules in adduct formation and for some of them I encounter the following problem when setting up the Hückel matrix during the define step:

 ERROR: non-positive definite matrix in Cholesky decomposition (routine: usad)
    of overlap matrix in project.f

MODTRACE: no modules on stack

 negative root in usad, see output
 define ended abnormally

Has anyone of you an idea, what the problem could be?

Thanks.

uwe

Hello,

no idea. I'd recommend to send the input to the Turbomole support team (turbomole at cosmologic dot de).

Regards,
