Dear Sir,

Thanking you for your quick reply.

I have used the same parameter for three charges. Following are the input
pp.x files:


*For Substrate + molecules:*&inputpp
    prefix  = 'PG_4_HCHO_PBE'
    outdir = './tmp/'
    filplot = 'PG_4_HCHO_charge'
    plot_num= 0
 /
 &plot
    nfile = 1
    filepp(1) = 'PG_4_HCHO_charge'
    weight(1) = 1.0
    iflag = 2
    output_format = 3
    fileout = 'PG4_HCHO.rho.dat'
    e1(1) =1.0, e1(2)=0, e1(3) = 0.0,
    e2(1) =0.0, e2(2)=0.0, e2(3) = 1.0,
    nx=56, ny=40
 /

*For Substrate only:*&inputpp
    prefix  = 'PG_4_PBE'
    outdir = './tmp/'
    filplot = 'PG_4_charge'
    plot_num= 0
 /
 &plot
    nfile = 1
    filepp(1) = 'PG_4_charge'
    weight(1) = 1.0
    iflag = 2
    output_format = 3
    fileout = 'PG4.rho.dat'
    e1(1) =1.0, e1(2)=0.0, e1(3) = 0.0,
    e2(1) =0.0, e2(2)=0.0, e2(3) = 1.0,
    nx=56, ny=40,
 /


*For Gas molecule only:*&inputpp
    prefix  = 'HCHO_PBE'
    outdir = './tmp/'
    filplot = 'HCHO_charge'
    plot_num= 0
 /
 &plot
    nfile = 1
    filepp(1) = 'HCHO_charge'
    weight(1) = 1.0
    iflag = 2
    output_format = 3
    fileout = 'HCHO.rho.dat'
    e1(1) =1.0, e1(2)=0.0, e1(3) = 0.0,
    e2(1) =0.0, e2(2)=0.0, e2(3) = 1.0,
     nx=56, ny=40,
/
 I am actually getting  error in the reading of the filepp(2) as follows:

Reading header from file  PG_4_HCHO_charge

   Info: using nr1, nr2, nr3 values from input
     Reading data from file  PG_4_HCHO_charge
     Reading data from file  PG_4_charge

 %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
     Error in routine chdens (1):
     incompatible gcutm or dual or ecut
 %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

     stopping ...

Thanks.
Bibhas
