Dear all,
  I want to do phonon calculation on an adsorption system with symmetry. So Idid some test calculations.
I did a test calculation on a system, say an molecule is adsorbed on a surface. I just want to calculate the vibrational frequencies of the molecule.  I set "nat_todo" in the input file of ph.x, and set the list of indices of atoms of the molecule. But in the result file there is not phonons.   I don't know what's wrong with it, and how to set  parameter in the input file of ph.x. Please help me! Thank you!


This is the output that I have set "nat_todo" in the input file,from output file we can't find the phonon data at the end of file:

The attachment is the output file of input that I have set "nat_todo=2", the molecule is HCHO, just for test.
Here is the input file:
vibrations of hcho

  prefix='HCHO',
  outdir='/home/jerry/tmp',

But in the result file there is not any vibration modes data.
