RE: ONIOM Problems with "gen" keyword



It looks like you have the basis set information after the pseudopotential
 information.  The basis set information should come *before* the pseudopotential
 information.

 Hi All,
 I'm having troubles running an ONIOM calculation on a M-C60 compound.  This is
 part of my input:

 Whe I run the calculations, I get the following error:

 I've discovered that the pseudopotential being read needs to be given before the
 basis sets (otherwise I get an error that 6-311++G** is an unknown
 pseudopotential), but the program still is having troubles reading the correct
 basis set.  Is there something special I need to do to use both the ONIOM
 program and the "gen" keyword?  Thanks,
 Jon Lyon
