Thank you for your advice Peter, my error was incorrectly edited machines file. When corrected the calculation converged.

I have another (actually, recurring) problem running TELNES (using the W2Web interface). I often have no ELNES output (zeros) despite converged SCF. All error files empty. My case.innes is same as I use for all TELNES (including successful results).

The structure is simply TiO2 anatase with a 3x3x2 supercell, no symmetry (P1), in this case no core-hole added yet. I used TEMP 0.002 instead of TETRA, SINGLE mode SCF, and the DOS calculation works fine (plotting DOS). Only TELNES seems to be null.

I’ve seen this null ELNES output quite a few times (not only SINGLE mode SCF / supercells) but can’t pin down what it the cause (or causes). Clearly something in the SCF starting parameters? In initlpw I didn’t accept the new case.struct as the symmetry had been changed so it’s P1 non-centrosymmetric. Where is my ELNES?

Ideas please!!

Best,

Tim.
