Hi,
  I am performing NPT simulations for periodic system. Calculations had 
terminated after 5 MD runs. It displayed error as follows: 
 
 *** 15:51:55 ERRORL3 in thermostat_utils:communication_thermo_low1 ***
 *** processor 0  :: err=-300 condition FAILED at line 1877         ***
 
System energies are:
 
ENERGY| Total FORCE_EVAL ( QS ) energy (a.u.):           
 -7813.110428731847605
 ENERGY| Total FORCE_EVAL ( QS ) energy (a.u.):

I found barostat temperature going on increasing:

 BAROSTAT TEMP[K]             =          0.214256751812E+03   
0.214256751812E+03
 BAROSTAT TEMP[K]             =          0.858960883736E+03   
0.536608817774E+03
 BAROSTAT TEMP[K]             =          0.201349929027E+05   
0.706940351276E+04
 BAROSTAT TEMP[K]             =          0.240108654447E+06   
0.653292162464E+05
 BAROSTAT TEMP[K]             =          0.218578079197E+08   
0.442382495693E+07

I enclosed corresponding input file also.  Could you please explain, 
reasons for this error.

Thank you..
