Hello, I have trouble with transitional state calculation in gaussian 16 program. I started with the first frequency calculation with cartesian coordination and it ends up normally. the input command and ended output massage of first frequency as followed:

#frequency input:

%int=TS2

%d2e=TS2

%skr=TS2

%Nosave

%chk=TS2

%rwf=TS2

%cpu=4

#n b3lyp/def2svp empiricaldispersion=gd3bj freq

****def2svp****

0 1

(cartesian coordination)

#frequency output ended massage :

00001280,-0.00010827,-0.00000806,-0.00006098,0.00000975,-0.00001458,0.

However, when continues with transitional state geometry search, l301.exe error occurs with hint massage "unrecognized in LdAtmC" at the end of output file. it really baffle me because all the geometry and wavefunction detail are continued from checkpoint file. The geometry optimization command and selected output file massage as followed:

#geometry optimization input:

%int=TS2

%d2e=TS2

%skr=TS2

%Nosave

%chk=TS2

%rwf=TS2

%cpu=4

Can some nice person who has experience solving this kind of problem teach me how to solve it? Thank you in advance.
