Greetings,

I am running calculations on Pd Ni clusters using dft XC b3lyp ECP Lan2dz in an attempt to generate homo lumo/orbital data in Gaussian cube file. I continue to get the error : DPlot: movecs_read_header failed
I have tried changing different parameters and I get the same error. Does anyone have any Suggestions? Thanks!


My input file is below:

Please remove the keyword "fragment" from your vectors input lines as shown below

dft
xc b3lyp
iterations 999
