ROKS input

Dear CP2k community,
  I performed geometry optimization for C2H4 at first singlet excited state
(S1) using ROKS, and found that the optimized geometry is exactly same as
the ground state (S0). Can anyone help me to figure out the way to optimize
geometry at low-spin excited state? I also ran an geometry optimization at
first triplet excited state (T1) , and obtained a distinct geometry as
expected. I guess I might miss some key options in the input file shown
below.

Thanks.
