[CP2K:8959] GEOMETRY wrong or EMAX_SPLINE too small!

[hut... at chem.uzh.ch]

Hi

the problem is related to your force field. You don't have 
interactions between O and H within water molecules and you
don't constrain the geometry of the molecules either.
This results in un-physical geometries after the first
time step.

Solution: Either use a flexible water FF or add constraints.

Subject: [CP2K:8959] GEOMETRY wrong or EMAX_SPLINE too small!

Hello!

I've faced a terrific issue or bug in the cp2k code: at the very start of a MD simulation (see the attachment) the calculation is aborting with following message:

"GEOMETRY wrong or EMAX_SPLINE too small!"

Geometry is not wrong (.png, .xyz), increasing EMAX_SPLINE doesn't work at all, I tried values up to 1.0E120.

Thanks in advance,
Anton
