Unknown error in CASPT2

Hi
I am new to molcas and am testing molcas's CASPT2. But an error appeared.
My input is:

&gateway
  title
    123

  coord
    molecule.xyz

  basis
    cc-pvdz
    ricd

&seward

&scf
  GSSRunfile
  prorbitals
    0
&rasscf
  inactive
    43
  ras2
    6

&caspt2
  shift
    0.2

HF and CASSCF tasks completed normally but CASPT2 crashed. The last few lines of the output is:

I compiled molcas with GlobalArray_5.7.2, hdf5_1.10.5, Intel_2021.4, and the configuration is:

CC=mpiicc FC=mpiifort CXX=mpiicpc cmake -DMPI_Fortran_COMPILER=mpiifort -DMPI_C_COMPILER=mpiicc -DMPI_CXX_COMPILER=mpiicpc -DMPI=ON -DGA=ON -DLINALG=MKL -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=[my path to molcas] ..

Any help will be appreciated.

Re: Unknown error in CASPT2

That looks like an integer size problem. Make sure you compile GlobalArrays with 64-bit integers and with a 64-bit integer interface to blas/lapack.

Thank you for your attention. My configuration of GlobalArray is:

./configure MPICXX=mpiicpc MPIF77=mpiifort MPICC=mpiicc --prefix=[dir to ga-build] --enable-i8 --with-openib \
--with-blas8="-L$MKLROOT/lib/intel64 -lmkl_intel_ilp64 -lmkl_intel_thread -lmkl_core -liomp5 -lpthread -lm" \
--with-scalapack8="-L$MKLROOT/lib/intel64 -lmkl_scalapack_ilp64 -lmkl_intel_ilp64 -lmkl_intel_thread -lmkl_core -lmkl_blacs_intelmpi_ilp64 -liomp5 -lpthread -lm"

It seems that I have already compiled ga with 64-bit. Would you please show me how to fix it?

Re: Unknown error in CASPT2

Hello, I also encountered the same error when calculating CASPT2 - "non-zero return code". Both SCF and CASSCF also end normally, and the last few lines of CASPT2 output are similar to your output file. I would like to ask you, have you solved this problem? Any help would be greatly appreciated. The output file is shown below.

I have not solved the problem yet, and I do not think the problem with your caspt2 task is the same as that with mine. There will always be a "non-zero return code" regardless of where the problem comes from. I suggest you open a new issue for your question.
