Hi
I am trying to optimize a molecule with 20 atoms at CASSCF(4,4)/6-31g(d) level of theory, using Gaussian 09 software. The maximum memory that I have is: %mem= 1300MB. (Windows 10, 64bit)
The job stops with this error:
Out-of-memory error in routine OMatEl (IEnd= 134216735 MxCore= 134216728)
Use %mem=129MW to provide the minimum amount of memory required to complete this step.
Every time I increase the memory (for example to 130MW), I receive this error message again (with a little more memory requested).
Any suggestion is really appreciated.
When you get the "Use %mem=129MW...", G09 refers to the actual linked at which the process run out of memory. This means that if you increase it by only 1MW, you are very likely to have the same problem when the software goes into the next gaussian links. Be more generous and provide more memory (for instance, 500 MW).
Hi Miguel
the problem is that the maximum memory that I have is only 1400Mb, and it is not enough. Is there any keyword to solve the problem?
