Dear Sergey
DFT-D3 is a semiempirical pairwise correction to forces added on top of the Hellmann-Feynman forces. You should be safely able to use HP to calculate the ab initio U correction without D3 and then add again the D3 correction to optimize your structure in a DFT+U+D3 fashion. If this is somehow "uncomfortable", you may also use one of the several vdwdf implementations to calculate U, dropping the semiempirical D3 term.

Quoting Sergey Lisenkov <[email protected]>:

Dear developers,
 
I was wondering if current version of HP code (to calculate U correction)
can be used for the materials where dispersion corrections (like D3) is
used. In the past, I calculated U correction in MOFs (with D3) using old
version PW/HP (6.7 version) with no problems. Now, for different material
(ferromagnetic metal) I tried the procedure and HP code died after reading
data with segmentation fault after printing D3 information. If I don't use
DFT-D3, it works. This is for 7.1 version. I tried different machines and
the same problem persists.
 
Is it a bug?
 
Thank you,
