yambo-4.0.2 error

Post by samaneh » Tue Feb 02, 2016 7:12 am

Dear Developers,
I did g0w0 calculation without any error but
doing rpa or tddft calculations I get this error:
"[ERROR] STOP signal received while in :[05] Optics

[ERROR][NetCDF] NetCDF: Not a valid ID"
would you please help me
Best regards

Dear Samaneh,
It is impossibile to help you if you do not post any details: input/report/logs as usual.

Dear Sameneh,
I do not know what exactly is the problem, anyway your input looks a bit messy.
I suppose you are running with 60 cpus.
You have in the SAVE directory an old dipole calculation, probably not matching with the current one: FFT, bands etc..
I suggest you to remove it and recalculate.
You are running an optic calculations so X_finite_q_CPU and related variables are not needed.
Please note also that the QP database does not look present in your SAVE directory, may be just because you are using netcdf libraries and all the databases has the "ndb" label and no "db".

I suggest you to restart the calculation by scratch (removing all the old database) and use cleaner inputs.

Best,
Daniele

Dear Daniele,
Thank you for your reply.
I could do it from scratch but I have to do it (tddft calculation)
using the g0w0 database!
would you please guide me more
about the error I sent you?

Dear Daniele,
How Can I compile yambo-4-0-2 without using netcdf?!
I used ./configure -h but I could not find any option for it
although I used ./configure --without-netcdf or --with-netcdf='no'
but it did not work!!!
I do not have any installed netcdf so maybe my error is because of that.

Dear Samaneh,
the netcdf library are mandatory for the 4.0.2 version. If you do not have them installed yambo od it for you.
If installed yambo successfully it means that yambo downloaded and compiled the netcdf librery, you can verify it in yambo/lib/netcdf
Of course if you did previous calculation with the 3.4 without netcdf the database are not compatible anymore and you need to recalculate it.
So, if you want to use the 4.0.2 you need to start the calculation form scratch , also the g0w0.
Best,
Daniele
