[CP2K-user] [CP2K:15353] GEO_OPT and CELL_OPT difference

Hii,

Now I have done cell_opt for my 2x2x2 lattice system. I prepared an argon
lattice. There will be 32 argon atoms on my lattice. Now I replace one
argon atom with a CO molecule (Carbon dioxide).  I again do the cell_opt
for this system.

After optimization I want to do vibrational analysis for this system. My
calculation stopped when SCF started.  I don't know what I am doing wrong.
Can you please suggest something?

The error message is:
