Hi all,

I am calculating the total energy of water dimer using
the ccCA module and the BSSE correction but I obtain
a message error as: "gridrtunc: no basis on ghost atom?"
I attach the input and output files. Thanks in advance.

Regards,

Javier

You have hit a bug. I have opened a github issue about it https://github.com/nwchemgit/nwchem/issues/611

We might have a fix for it soon.

The following source patch should fix this bug for NWChem 7.0.2  https://github.com/nwchemgit/nwchem/commit/56b4b228f5adb8e0e2bedaa4062c5e6afcf7cb76.patch

Here is how to apply this patch on an existing NWChem 7.0.2 source code

cd $NWCHEM_TOP
patch -p1 < 56b4b228f5adb8e0e2bedaa4062c5e6afcf7cb76.patch
cd src/ccca
make
cd ..
make link

Dear Edoardo,

I have done it but I get the same error message:
(gridrtunc: no basis on ghost atom?                   4).

Regards,

Javier

I have just tested the fix with the current 7.0.2. and master branches and they do both work for the input you uploaded.
Could you try to compile the  7.0.2 version  from scratch using the current github repository source (instead of using the release tarballs)
You can get the 7.0.2 version with the command

git clone -b hotfix/release-7-0-0 https://github.com/nwchemgit/nwchem.git nwchem-7.0.2

Thanks Edoardo, now it is working. BUT, I am trying to run it (in the background) using the following:

"mpirun -np 8 nchem input.nw > output &" and it stops, i.e. I cannot use "&" ????

Could you provide more details about this problem?
What shell are you using? bash or csh/tcsh?
When does the process stop? Is it just after you hit the return key?

If you are you using bash, some MPI implementations might require the following command

nohup  mpirun -np 8 $NWCHEM_TOP/bin/LINUX64/nwchem input.nw >& output </dev/null &

Many thanks Edoardo. Now it is working fine. I am using bash with:

"mpirun -np 8 nwchem input.nw > output </dev/null &"

Dear Edoardo,

I would like to calculate the total energy of an atom in the CBS extrapolation. Is it possible to do it
using the ccCA module?  Thanks in advance.

I must confess I have never used the ccCA module, therefore I  am not familiar with either its input options or its functionality.

Ok, but then how can you calculate it with nwchem?

In NWChem there is no automated way of computing CBS. The user can generated the input file and then use the computed energies values for the CBS extrapolation.

Hi all,

I am calculating the total energy for the
helium atom using the ccCA module but
it does not work. Any help would be appreciated.
I attach the input and output files. Thanks in advance.

There is no aug-cc-pcvtz basis set for helium as the error says.

Yes. It cannot be calculated with ccCA module. Thanks again.
