How can I specify the path of the xyz file in the geometry directive?

[Tanvir ur Rahman Chowdhury]

Hello,

Let's say I have an xyz file in directory B whichi is the same directory where I am writing my NWChem code. I can write:

...

geometry

load file_name.xyz

end

...

It works.

But, let's say my xyz file is in folder A and the NWChem code is in folder B. If I write:

...

geometry

load ../B/file_name.xyz                (that is path to the xyz file)

end

...

I am getting an error.

Question: how can I specify the path of the xyz file in the geometry directive?

Thanks.

The only way to specify a directory name is to give its full path, the relative path is not going to work.

E.g.

...

geometry

load /home/johdoe/mydirs/B/file_name.xyz

end

...
