Hello all,
I’m having difficulty with testing a pseudo.
I started with the Al.pbe-n-kjpaw_psl.1.0.0.in file from the PS Library. I’m
using QE installed through synaptic, which is ld1.x version 6.4.1. I also
tried this with 6.6 that I downloaded from the website and compiled.
In both cases, I can run the .in file to generate the pseudo without complaint,
and I see no obvious issues in the output. When I plot the log derivatives
they seem to match up very nicely. When I try to run a test configuration
though, it fails.
It looked like it was complaining about the wavefunctions having nodes, so I
tried adding rho0=0.01 and out of desperation 0.1! To no avail.
My question is whether I am doing something else incorrect in how I’m setting
up the test?
Thanks,
Zack
Here is the .in file I’m using to run the test (the original file from PS
Library is exactly the same except I’ve added a &test section and changed
iswitch=2 instead of 3):
&input
title='Al',
zed=13.,
rel=1,
config='[Ne] 3s2 3p1 3d-1',
iswitch=2,
dft='PBE'
/
&inputp
lpaw=.true.,
pseudotype=3,
file_pseudopw='Al.pbe-n-kjpaw_psl.1.0.0.UPF',
author='ADC',
lloc=-1,
rcloc=1.9,
which_augfun='PSQ',
rmatch_augfun_nc=.true.,
nlcc=.true.,
new_core_ps=.true.,
rcore=1.8,
tm=.true.

With both versions, the test runs the AE calculation OK, and then when it
starts to run the pseudo:
With 6.6 I see:
