I am running a very simple test using rs2-f12/cc-pVDZ-f12.
When I set the wavefunction to 24,2,2, (2 irreps, triplet) the test works fine. 
However, I want to consider this molecule at a singlet state, 24,2,0, in Multi. When I try to consider it at this state, I receive the following error, alongside receiving a very broken geometry:

 ? Geometry inconsistency ?
 R=  -2.9888650996017917E-002   2.9888650996017809E-002


 ? Error
 ? Possible programming error in geometry update
 ? The problem occurs in zmatrix.f:zmat_gradz

 GLOBAL ERROR fehler on processor   0

The only thing I change between attempts is going from 24,2,2 to 24,2,0.

My actual input to Molpro:

memory,200,m
geometry={angstrom
 o
 x    1 xxo2
 c    2 cxx3        1 cxxo3
 c    2 cxx4        3 cxxc4         1 dih

 h    3 hc1         2 hcxx1         4 -dih1

 h    4 hc2         2 hcxx2         3 -dih2
}

rs2,shift=0.2

put molden irreps_24.zmat

Any help on being able to consider the singlet state would be greatly appreciated. 

Thank you for your time,

Dear Naiya,

 

Please check the associated log file. Presumably the rs2 calculation converges ok but something must go wrong in the geometry optimization step.
