I intend to use my installation in portable batch queuing system and here an issue appears that when I run calculations they finish in a sense
that proper output with results is generated (I can see it in scratch directory) however Dalton seems not to communicate with PBS to finish the
process. Hence the finished calculations do not "call" PBS to finish my task and output files are not copied to the directory from which I start
the job.

I have tried also intel16.0 and intel13.1 compilers but it does not help. What can be the source of this problem? In the same computer centre,
there is Dalton2015.0 installation but I need my own with some parameters changed. Anyway, this Dalton2015.0 does not show similar issues.

Best wishes,

It sounds like the problem is that the dalton executable never terminates or that you get stuck in the dalton script. Does it happen in both serial and parallel runs?

Not that it's a solution but you can use the "-o" or "-ow" option to redirect output to the work directory.

Hi Magnus,

The same happens in serial mode. Thanks for suggestion with output redirection. I will help as a temporary solution.

Best wishes,
Dawid

Hi again,

I have solved the problem. It was an error related to loading improper openmpi module.

Best wishes,
