Dear Molpro Users:

I am trying to run a CASPT2 calculation on a linear molecule.  The
CASSCF calculation was good, but when the program came to the RS2C
portion, it crashed with this error:

 You should not be here!!

 ERROR EXIT

I did other calculations with different active spaces and different
states, and they all came to the same error.  However, I tried turning
off symmetry and it worked fine.  What's going on?

Cheers,
Brian
