[CP2K-user] [CP2K:21208] ECP Gradients NYI

Dear Cp2k Community, 

I am trying to run a DFT geometry optimisation and subsequently a vibration 
analysis on a molecular system using Stuttgart groups ECPs and their 
associated optimised basis sets. After a SCF cycle I get the following 
error 'ECP Gradients NYI'. I have previously used GTH Potentials and not 
had this issue. 

I am assuming that NYI means 'not yet implemented' in this context? Is 
there an issue with the ECP input I have used in the input file? I had 
taken the format from basis set exchange.

Thank you in advance!

Sophie
