[molpro-user] Unknown command CIS for HF-SCF?

Hi Seth,
I think there are a couple of things here.  First, I think you should put the
cis line after your hf declaration (see below).  Additionally, I believe -1.1
refers to the ground state, so you really want -2.1 to look at the excited state
(pg 172 in the eom-ccsd section says, " Note that state 1.1 is the ground-state
CCSD wave-function."

{hf
wf,16,1,0
}
cis,-2.1,trans=1

Also, my copy of 2008.1 doesn't recognize "cis" as a gprint keyword, so you
probably need to drop that one.  Finally, I think you have a typo in your
cartesians where the first "C*" should be "C".
Hope that helps,
Benj
