A user at SDSC ( www.sdsc.edu) was trying to run a vasp job on our expanse cluster ( www.sdsc.edu/systems/expanse/user_guide.html)

The error message was:

Computing MMN

| LPRJ_CALC_WANNIER_TRAFO: DGESDD returned: 6 |

| ----> I REFUSE TO CONTINUE WITH THIS SICK JOB ... BYE!!! <---- |

Attached are the OUTCAR and input files.

Thanks,

Jerry

Dear Jerry,

Thank you for your question.

I've tried to run this calculation with VASP 6.2.1 and I was not able to reproduce this error. What compiler and libraries are you using? Could you provide your makefile.include? Also, we have a list of toolchains we tests ourselves. Are you building VASP with one of the toolchains from this list?

Also, I imagine that this problem would show for other calculations. Were you able to run all tests from the testsuite with this version of VASP?

Best,
Alexey
