Hi Fei Mao,

 The funny thing is it says "WARNING" but stops anyway :) ; well,
 it happened also to me sometimes. The problem is with the DZP, that
 by default chooses 0.15 for the split norm of the 2nd zeta function,
 whereas your pseudo says it cannot go below 0.17xx.
 There are ways to change the default behavior, but I don't have them
 ready in my head, check the manual for the "split norm" stuff.
 Best,

 Roberto

Hello, Siesta Users



I encounter a problem in using the Siesta code. When I perform a geometry 
optimization with Ca.psf, which is produced by the ATOM code with the Ca.inp 
which is downloaded from the official website of Siesta. The run get stuck, and 
print the error as followed:



WARNING: Minimum split_norm parameter:  0.17664. Will not be able to generate 
orbital with split_norm =  0.15000



I do not know what is the problem and how to fix it.

Any comment or suggestion is appreciated. I attach the input and output files. 
Thank you in advance.
