I don't understand how you can get the same error without using the script since the error code is generated by Python.
Basically what has happened is that "Etot" is no longer printed in your siesta output for whatever reason and hence your script no longer recognises it. Commenting out that line would fix the problem. Or I would recommend actually looking at your siesta output to get a better understanding of what is happening. Don't rely too much on scripts which other people have written ;) -------------------------------------------------------- Aaron Thong PhD research student Department of Materials B321 Desk 20 Imperial College London -------------------------------------------------------- On 17 Dec 2015, at 07:05, <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: Dear Nick, Thank for your reply.
