[molpro-user] Inconsistent memory?

[zhendong zhao]

Hi Peter,
Thank you.
I forget mentioning I use Molpro 2008.1 (patch level 5) binary version.
I tested some MCSCF examples shipped with source code, it looks fine.
But for my input file, it would give  "Inconsistent memory" message if
it runs in parallel. My test example is small, it will gives that error
message after 1 minute. I have less experience on Molpro, I can not
figure out what problem it is.
