Issue with Printing CMS-PDFT Analytical Gradients and NACs Together
Hello everyone,
I am currently using OpenMolcas for non-adiabatic dynamics simulations and need to compute CMS-PDFT analytical gradients and non-adiabatic couplings (NACs) at each time step. However, when I attempt to calculate both the gradients and NACs simultaneously in OpenMolcas v24.06, I encounter a "Non-zero return code" error. The issue seems to arise only when requesting both outputs in the same input file. Running them separately in different input files works as expected. It appears that the program may be entering an infinite loop before crashing.
Here is my input file:
&GATEWAY
Coord=openmolcas.xyz
Basis=6-31g*
Group=NoSymm
RICD
&SEWARD
DoAnalytical
&RASSCF
FileOrb = $CurrDir/openmolcas.RasOrb

&MCPDFT
KSDFT = T:PBE
GRAD
MSPDFT
NAC
2 1
&ALASKA
Root = 2
PNEW
&ALASKA
NAC = 2 1The output consistently ends with the following error:

Timing: Wall=448.93 User=415.62 System=29.14The program seems to loop between &ALASKA and &MCLR modules until it crashes. When I run the two tasks separately in different inputs, they complete successfully, but together it always crashes.
Has anyone encountered this issue, or could anyone suggest a possible fix for running both gradients and NACs together?
Thank you in advance for your help!

Re: Issue with Printing CMS-PDFT Analytical Gradients and NACs Together
First, CMS-PDFT gradients are not implemented with density fitting (so you will have to remove the RICD keyword) (see Discrepancies in CMS-PDFT Gradients Compared to CASPT2)
Note that I would suggest not using the ALASKA ROOT keyword
&ALASKA
Root = 2
PNEWwith the MC-PDFT module. Instead, you (currently) have to specify the root you want to calculate the gradient for in the RASSCF module using the RLXRoot keyword.
&RASSCF
FileOrb = $CurrDir/openmolcas.RasOrb
Spin=1
Nactel=6 0 0
Inactive=18
Ras2 = 6
CiRoot = 2 2 1
CMSI
RLXRoot = 2
&MCPDFT
KSDFT = T:PBE
GRAD
MSPDFT
&ALASKA
PNEWRegarding calculating both NACs and gradients together, you will have to re-run MCPDFT between the ALASKA calls in order to calculate the correct potential terms.
