hello,
I submitted a job in USPEX to predict the crystal structures using Na and Cl atoms, and opted for variable composition method. However, the job does not start. I viewed the log file and it shows following errors.

Undefined function or variable 'tempCom'.

Error in createORG_AbinitCode (line 91)
ORG_STRUC.commandExecutable=tempCom;

Error in createORGStruc (line 90)
createORG_AbinitCode(inputFile);

Error in Start (line 51)
createORGStruc(inputFile);
 


Can you please tell me what could be wrong? Did i put anything wrong in INPUT.txt file? Or did i miss anything vital in the INPUT.txt ?  Bellow is the INPUT.txt file.

When using whichcluster = 0, you need to specify your executable command:
look at the manual in:

http://uspex-team.org/online_utilities/uspex_manual/sect0024.html   

% commandExecutable
YOU NEED TO PUT EXECUTABLE COMMAND HERE
 % EndExecutable


I have modified your input as below:
###
11        : firstGeneMax
10        : minAt
20        : maxAt
