<br>
<br>Firstly, you might want to consider upgrading to a more recent version of CP2K (for performance, features and bug-fixes).
<br>
<br>Second, some hints that might help resolve your problem can be found at <a href="https://www.cp2k.org/faq:cholesky_decomp_failed" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" onmousedown="this.href='https://www.google.com/url?q\75https%3A%2F%2Fwww.cp2k.org%2Ffaq%3Acholesky_decomp_failed\46sa\75D\46sntz\0751\46usg\75AFQjCNEN715SICbFh-Lg6Iy5gubSDI46yw';return true;" onclick="this.href='https://www.google.com/url?q\75https%3A%2F%2Fwww.cp2k.org%2Ffaq%3Acholesky_decomp_failed\46sa\75D\46sntz\0751\46usg\75AFQjCNEN715SICbFh-Lg6Iy5gubSDI46yw';return true;">https://www.cp2k.org/faq:<wbr>cholesky_decomp_failed</a>

<br>> Hi all,
<br>> 
<br>> I've been using the OT[CP2K(2.4)] eigensolver successfully for calculating energies for quite large systems (60-70 atoms) and now I need to find the optimized geometry using BFGS with OT (attached 3.inp). But I get the following error message:
<br>> 
<br>> 
<br>>   
<br>>  *****************************<wbr>******************************<wbr>**************

<br>> 
<br>> However, when I constrain all atoms in the large system I do not get this error and the calculations go OK.  Changing the solver to Digonalization proceeds on successfully (attached 1.inp), but I would like to use OT throughout for its fast performance. I tested the combination OT+BFGS for the small system of H2O (attached 2.inp), with and without pinning the atoms, and that worked fine: so why doesn't work for the large system? Please help me figure out where the problem lies. 
<br>>
