Hi @FloRuepp
This is interesting... I just briefly was trying to replicate this and I got stuck at Python 3.7.4 not being available on anaconda, which perhaps suggests that version of python has some kind of problem(?)
The default way I install python then autodE on a new system is to use miniforge with something like
wget https://github.com/conda-forge/miniforge/releases/latest/download/Miniforge3-Linux-x86_64.sh
bash Miniforge3-Linux-x86_64.sh
(selecting all the defaults and letting it initialise, then just conda install autode
)
Let me know if that works! 😄
Dear Tom, since I am just freshly starting a new project, I had no issue just switching to python 3.8.5 and re-installing all the packages, which seemst to have instantly fixed the problem. Curious... Thanks for your help, Flo
Awesome – no problem at all
I recently installed autodE and was trying to reproduce the butadiene-ethene DA reaction, using python 3.7.4 and orca 5.0.2 (although the same error was reproduced using orca 4.1.0). However, the calculation fails during the transition state search phase with the following error:
The code to obtain this result is simply:
import autode as ade
ade.Config.n_cores = 8
ade.Config.max_core = 4000
rxn = ade.Reaction('C=CC=C.C=C>>C1=CCCCC1', name='DA')
rxn.calculate_reaction_profile()
