Hi all,
 I am new in this  and not sure it is a network problem or a setting problem.
When I request a run for same input file for two different ppotentials, one 
(SG_BLYP) runs and the other (VDB_BLYP) fails. 

Here is the CPMD output for the failed one..

 --initial part then
 ***     DETSP| SIZE OF THE PROGRAM IS    2640/  77644 kBYTES ***
MPI_Recv: process in local group is dead (rank 1, SSI:coll:smp:local comm 
for CID 0)
Rank (3, MPI_COMM_WORLD): Call stack within LAM:
Rank (3, MPI_COMM_WORLD):  - MPI_Recv()
Rank (3, MPI_COMM_WORLD):  - MPI_Bcast()
Rank (3, MPI_COMM_WORLD):  - MPI_Bcast()
Rank (3, MPI_COMM_WORLD):  - main()

----
I have read in one of the list e-mail that this could be due to network talk 
failure. However, it worls for one of the potentials and not for the other one. 

Could any one tell me how can I make this thing work?

Here is the input file that did not work.....
