[gpaw-users] Regarding 'RuntimeError: Atoms objects on different processors are not identical!'

Hi Ask

How do we enable the debug mode in GPAW? I tried gpaw-python with -d 
option but it says it is only for the parser, so no files with faulty 
positions were generated.

Kind regards
Yuiry

Hi Hanne

In trunk (and possibly in the old version; this I don't remember) the 
faulty positions will be dumped to files if you use debug mode.  Then you 
can check whether they completely disagree (something is wrong with the 
parallelization, probably of the XC functional) or whether there's just 
some numerical noise (some calculation is duplicated in a way that allows 
numerical inaccuracies across different cores).

Best regards

Dear all, 

I get the following error message: 
RuntimeError: Atoms objects on different processors are not identical! 

I can see there have been a number of questions about this. Did someone 
find a solution  to this problem? 

My input is: 
calc = 
GPAW(xc='BEEF-vdW',kpts=[1,1,1],h=0.20,mixer=MixerSum(),spinpol=True, 
maxiter=300,occupations=FermiDirac(width=0.1),txt='gpaw.txt') 

We use gpaw version 0.10.0.11364 

Best regards, 
Hanne
