Dear Sarah,

This typically happens, if your geometry is ill. for example, atoms are
far too close to each other. Maybe due to the periodic boundary
conditions, which do not fit to the atom coordinates you have specified?
You could try to repeat the geometry with repeatgen along the each
lattice direction and inspect the resulting geometry on strange positions.

  Best regards,

  Bálint
