[molpro-user] How to Avoid 'ERROR IN VIRTORB: INCORRECT NUMBER OF ORBITALS' without using start, atden

Dear Professor Peterson : 
No I haven't changed the basis. 
But the starting guess orbitals are from Cs symmetry
and all the geometries in loop are having C1 symmetry. (changing one parameter causes the symmetry change)
I want to use use Cs orbitals for calculating the ground state and excited for the C1 geometries. 
Can I do it by any other way? 

Thanks and regards
Sachin...

Dear Sachin,

this seems to be an unusual error to me.  One needs to understand why the number of virtuals are changing from one geometry to another. Have you changed the basis set or perhaps even the molecule?
