I am using a precompiled binary of Molpro 2008.1. I have the following input in xyz format for the methoxy molecule, and I believe I am following the example given in the manual. <br>The output says - <br> SETTING GEOMTYPE = XYZ<br>
Faulty geometry input, specified line:<br>H<br>0.82874<br>0.00000<br>-0.69003<br> Your input contained 4 fields, but there should have been<br> 7<br><br> Z matrix Current Z-matrix<br> ========<br>
<br> Records: 700.0 700.0<br> Maximum, total, and current numbers of geometry points 100 0 0<br> Orientation using atomic masses<br><br> # Tag N1 Distance N2 Angle N3 Angle J<br><br> 1 1<br>

<br>--------- How is it that it interprets my input as Zmatrix? Here is the relevant section of the input - <br> basis=6-311++G<br> geomtype=xyz<br> geometry={<br> 5<br><br>O, 0.00000, 0.00000, 1.47586<br>H, 0.82874, 0.00000, -0.69003<br>
