[molpro-user] insufficient memory available

[Manhui Wang]

Dear Marcela,

The error like " insufficient memory available" is normally caused by 
incorrect memory settings (not a bug). However, other bugs could 
possibly trigger the error as Molpro runs out of the specified memory.  
Does it still happen when you increase the memory for your input? If the 
error disappears, then it is the memory setting problem.

Best wishes,
Manhui
