Basis set error

Dear All,
I am doing some ab initio calculations of certain Lanthanide complexes, while doing the GuesOrb calculations i am facing some problems with the basis sets. I have used ANO-RCC basis sets for all the atoms but the error shows that i am using both relativistic and non-relativistic basis sets. Can some one please suggest the solution to the problem arising.




error obtained is as:

Re: Basis set error

It seems there is a bug in handling the BASIS keyword with multiple labels. As a workaround, until a fix is up, you can write the basis set labels directly in the xyz file as in:

  3
Water
 O.ANO-RCC...4s3p2d.  -0.33840     0.00380     0.23923
 H.ANO-RCC...2s.      -0.33510    -0.00190    -0.83277
 H.ANO-RCC...2s.       0.67350    -0.00190     0.59353

Re: Basis set error

Dear Ignacio
I have a large number of atoms in the xyz file which is having multiples of Carbon Nitrogen and other atoms. Now my question is that do i have to write Basis for each individual atom of the same type or i just have to write for one atom of the series at once only. Since you have given coordinates as well which means each atom has to be given basis set individually. Is it like that?

my xyz is like this:

Re: Basis set error

For the workaround you have to specify the basis for each atom. Alternatively, pick the one that's most common, put it in BASIS, and in the xyz specify only the others. For instance:

COORD
1D-opt.xyz
BASIS
ANO-RCC...3s2p.

and

117
symmetry c1
 Dy.ANO-RCC...8s7p5d3f2g1h.        14.1323800270       13.1954114642       30.0054931422
  N.ANO-RCC...4s3p2d.        14.3972778084       13.1960105843       27.5140134933
  O.ANO-RCC...4s3p2d.        14.6930434405       14.1822220290       31.9431633357
  O.ANO-RCC...4s3p2d.        12.0174757950       13.6396622167       30.7066967510
...
  C        14.2909774692       11.8391152806       25.4959181651
  C        13.9285268342       12.1185313118       26.8395052629
...

But now I notice you haven't given any basis for oxygen, by default it will use ANO-S-MB, which is non-relativistic.
