response block size in GW reduced to some value

Hi All,

Can someone by any chance tell me why the following warning would show up in the report file (r-*) of a calculation:

[WARNING] Response block size in GW reduced to 495 RL (7631 mHa)

I get this warning when I repeat an old calculation with the new version 5 of the code.
The results of the G0W0 calculation are NAN and I assume that this is related to the warning,
maybe because the input file has some additional parameters in the new version.


Best regards,

Christian

Dear Christian,

the warning should be harmless, and surely it should not produce any NaN.
Are you using terminator technique, right?
Can you please pos your input and reports?

Daniele

Have you tried to regenerate the input file using the new version ?

Hi All,

Sorry for the late reply and thanks for your comments.

The problem happens with and without the terminator and the
input file was regenerated on top of the old input file.

Maybe the latter is the issue but we have in the meantime
circumvented the problem, i.e. the calculation is no longer
necessary.


Best,

Christian
