Gerald and Grant, thanks for your advice.  Applying F3EXTSIZE=200.0 leads
to a different error, occuring just afterwards (sorry, it's rather long):

Does this mean that the 3-external problem has been solved and the error
occurs at the next step, or is it still due to the 3-ext size limit?

This is a df-LCCSD(T)/aug-cc-pVTZ energy calculation on a stacked uracil
dimer.

Many thanks,
Leo
