Re: QwikMD QM Tut - FATAL ERROR: Error running command for QM forces calculation.

Dear Diago,

I found the error. My Mopac executable file is actually at:
/opt/mopac/bin/mopac

The job runs now on 1 CPU. I will test multiple CPU's and GPU's next.

Thanks for your kind help!
Best wishes
Gert Kruger
