What does this error mean?
« on: March 15, 2010, 14:25 »
Hello,
I got some lines of this error:"# Pulay mixing inversion failed. Using only last step.",when I was calculating the bias of a two probe system with one electrode C and the other Li.
What does it mean? Then does the result I got reliable?
Thanks!

Thx all. I've fixed the problem by modifying the lattice constant.:)
