Dear CPMD-user,

I am using CPMD 3.11.1 and trying to calculate KOHN-SHAM ENERGY of Al2O3.
CPMD is compiled IFORT-AMD64-MPI. It does not have any problem during
geometry optimization. However, when I calculate Kohn-Sham Energy, it shows
the following error message,
.....

        3S        ALPHA=   1.3724      OCCUPATION= 2.00
