internal error in: rot.F at line: 793

Dear Support,

When I set "ALGO = All" to optimize the structure of the Li slab in vasp6.2.0, it showed the following error message:

Dear Zhaoru Sun,

I have successfully converged your input files with vasp-6.2.0 using two different toolchains (software-stacks).
gnu_mkl.zip is obtained with vasp-6.2.0 compiled with gfortran-9.3.0 + openmpi-4.0.5 + Intel-MKL-2019.5.281 and run on two nodes with 8 cpus each connected with infiniband cables.
pxe.zip is obtained with vasp-6.2.0 compiled with intel-parallel-studio-xe-2020.2.254 and run on 8 nodes with 8 cpus each (same number of MPI ranks as you have chosen for your run).
Both tests give the same results (up to a specific precision), compare the CONTCAR or OSZICAR files for instance.

I strongly suspect that something is not properly set up with your environment.
It seems you are using some Intel software stack. Which version of Intel-compilers, Intel-MPI and Intel-MKL are you using?
Is it listed on our recommended toolchain list?
