Dear Anastassia,

Please send the inputs and output files. It might just be a problem with the
coordinates input. One should keep in mind that the point charge coordinates
must be given in Angstrom and no symmetry should be used. Or it might be a
problem in the program. We will have to take a closer look.

Best wishes,
Ricardo
