[CP2K-user] [CP2K:19332] cp2k vs. gaussian software

Dear Jürg Hutter & cp2k community
 Thank you for reply.

I confirmed the structure after geometry optimization.

As attached snapshots, I get the much different structure of before and 
after optimization.
I am putting in attachment the obtained snapshots (left:before, right: 
after).

Probably, I think that the molecule connectivities did not keep the initial 
atoms under simulation.
In case of Gaussian program, I confirmed the consistment of structure with 
before and after optimization.

How do I solve this problem?
Please advise the method to solve it.



 regards
