This will not work because of lower-case l.

Can you provide a single script which runs?

c should not be around 6?

But should they be equal?  No surface type was specified when creating la0001_1.

Hello *, 

I am running a NEB calculation via the Vasp calculator, utilizing the BFGS optimizer. The initial structure is not converging and no information is being written to the trajectory file after ~700 ionic steps. The initial structure used was relaxed using Vasp manually outside of ASE. Any ideas as to how to make this structure converge faster? Attached is my script.

I've attached a script showing one way to do it that you can play with.
