Hello Dears,

I am currently working on time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) calculations for both singlet and triplet states using the LC-BLYP functional in GAMESS. I believe I have correctly followed the procedure outlined in the GAMESS manual, however, I am encountering errors when executing my jobs. Below is the input I used for my calculations:

```

$CONTRL SCFTYP=UHF RUNTYP=energy DFTTYP=BLYP ICHARG=0

TDDFT=EXCITE MAXIT=200 MULT=3 ISPHER=0 $END

$TDDFT nstate=1 iroot=1 mult=3 $END

$DFT LC=.TRUE. $END

$SCF DIRSCF=.t. diis=.t. damp=.t.

soscf=.f. shift=.t. swdiis=1e-4 $END

$BASIS GBASIS=N31 NGAUSS=6 NDFUNC=1 $END

$SYSTEM TIMLIM=999999100 MWORDS=500 kdiag=1 $END
