My original message was too large, which is why I attach the output in a
seperate file. Due to its size it seems I have to cut it into pieces, so I
present the first and last slice of the output where you can observe the
charge going from 0.000002 to 73, as well as the "Cholesky decomposition
failed. Matrix ill conditioned ?" after which the run fails.
Thanks You all in advance!
