Hi 

I am not a TRAVIS user, but looking at your files it seems to
me that you have used the wrong 'trajectory' file. 
CP2K writes a trajectory file during MD that is usually call
....pos-x.xyz. This file contains the coordinates of all particles.
If you calculate Wannier functions during a MD you can also request
a file ions+wannier-centers. This last file should only be used for
analysis, not as a REFTRAJ! as it contains Wannier center information.

If this distinction is not clear from the TRAVIS documentation,
tell the TRAVIS developers to upgrade the manual.

regards

Juerg

  Dear developers and users,
  

I’m plaguing with the same problem and it’s outputting the same error. Could anyone give some advice?
  

Thank you very much.

Dear users and developers,

My name is Ion Such and I am a recent CP2K user. I am interested in getting raman spectra of adsorbed molecules. 
As an exercise I am following one of the HOWTOs on the cp2k web: "How to calculate infrared and Raman spectra from MD with CP2K and TRAVIS". In my case I am simulating a molecule of  para-nitroaniline in a box.
At the time of writing  I have made the first Molecular Dynamics run and have obtained the infrared spectrum and  a cp2k input file for the calculation of the polarizabilities by using TRAVIS but I run into an error when trying to execute the polarizabilities calculation that I don't understand and need some help to go ahead.

The error in the output file reads
