Hi,

I tried a calculation, got the error information:


 Eigenvalues of metric

         1 0.469E-09 0.118E-07 0.190E-07 0.343E-07 0.460E-07 0.499E-07
0.509E-07 0.561E-07

 ERROR: BASIS LINEARLY DEPENDENT OR WRONG S

 The current threshold for the smallest tolerated eigenvalue of S is
1.0D-08

 This threshold can be changed with  GTHRESH,THROVL=value, but values
smaller than 1.d-8
 are normally not recommended and can cause numerical problems.

 GLOBAL ERROR fehler on processor   0   



When I set "GTHRESH,THROVL=1.d-10", the error message disapear, but
another error arised:


 WARNING: ORBITALS825.1 120.1 NOT ORTHONORMAL: -0.1758D-07
 WARNING: ORBITALS840.1 120.1 NOT ORTHONORMAL: -0.1024D-07
 WARNING: ORBITALS862.1 120.1 NOT ORTHONORMAL: -0.1015D-07

 REORTHONORMALIZATION NOT SUCCESSFUL

 The current threshold for the largest tolerated overlap of different
orbitals is   1.0D-08

 This threshold can be changed with  GTHRESH,THRORTH=value, but values
larger than 1.d-8
 are normally not recommended and can cause numerical problems.

 GLOBAL ERROR fehler on processor   0   

Looks like I need set "THRORTH" to a large value? But this "can cause
numerical problems"?

Thanks,

Wei
