LAPACK errors with Dec. 2004 build

LAPACK problems with static vasp 4.6 Dec 2004 Ifort(IFC) 8.1, LAM-7.1.1 Furth. FFT

Hello all,

I'm getting the same error for all types of total energy calculations I'm running with the new build of VASP. Does anybody know what the problem might be?

I've used a makefile provided by the support specifically for IFC with minimal changes to point to our versions of MKL (7.0) and LAM (7.1.1) libraries.

Any insight would be appreciated, thanks!

Mike

Have you read the previous post of "problem with lam-mpi and ifort" ? It seems similar problem.

[admin]

One of the reasons for that crash may be the following:
the Intel compiler 80 and compiler81 releases of mpif77 seem to have problems with the memory handling in hamil.F for large jobs. The latest release of the code (version June27th, 2005) includes a work-around for this problem.

in any case, please check if the error really was due to that bug and not to
some error in the input:
to do so, generate an executable with ifc7 (mpif77, compiler release 7.1). If this executable runs, your input seems ok.
