[Pw_forum] vc-relax and LDA+U: Segmentation fault

[Matteo Cococcioni]

Dear Marino,

I have never run a vc-relax simulation with LDA+U but I know of people 
who have done that successfully.
if U_projection_type = 'atomic' the code should compute forces and
stresses with LDA+U no problem. Do you obtain forces and stresses?
Also I'm not sure I have understood where the code stops. Does the 
segmentation fault appear after the first scf cycle (and after the first 
calculation
of stresses and forces)?
Also what kind of dynamics have you picked?

regards,

Matteo
