Hello,

There was some problems regarding having cp2k version 3 working however now
I am having different problems running the dtfd3bj jobs. I have download
the files from
http://www.thch.uni-bonn.de/tc/downloads/DFT-D3/functionalsbj.html to use
these parameters however I am not sure what to put in the code as the
actual parameter_file_name as the download is a zip file containing many
coord files and a reference.dat that is a fortram program. When I attempted
to use the reference file as the parameter file an error that the file
could not be found.

Does anyone who's used bj damping know how this parameter file works or has
an alternate parameter file I could use with the PBE functional?

Thanks, Richard Edwards
