Hello Frank,

as a first guess, this could be the stack size limit (check ulimit -s and then either increase or unlimit it).

Regards

Ben

Hi,

I'm trying to run a periodic system with xtb (inputs are attached) but I keep getting a core dump.  The computer I'm using has 100GB of memory and I feel that the system is small (only 393 atoms) so I have no clue why I'm getting a seg fault.

Anyone got any ideas?

Thanks!
Frank
