[molpro-user] Illegal ECP center

It seems to me that everything works just fine if you remember to do Hartree-Fock before the MP2 calculation, and if you target the closed-shell singlet S state of Cu+, as in the following input. If you want to do MP2 on an open-shell system, then the directive 'MP2' cannot be used, since this calls the closed-shell program. For the singlet D state it seems unlikely to me that one could use any single-reference method, since the reference function has at least two equally-important determinants.

>       I am still trying to tackle the quadruple polarizability does not give value problem. You said before because it is a bug. The key problem for quadruple polarizability with MP2 method is that the CPHF doesn't converge for perturbation calculation. To me, I find out the quadruple polarizability works for some cases but not for others. I would rather think it is a basis set problem (close shell has been defined). The reason I would like to put the basis set by hand is to understand how the basis set works in molpro so that I could modify it by myself.
