aux_basis for Q-Chem

Closed this issue · 2 comments

Hello,

I tried to generate the Q-QChem input for the auxiliary basis to def2-TZVP, called def2-TZVP-RIFIT by MolSSI. It works, but the input generated looks like it was for a normal basis rather then an aux_basis. So, I get

$rem
    BASIS GEN
    PURECART 111
$end

$basis
H     0

But the desired behaviour would be

$rem
    AUX_BASIS GEN
    PURECART 111
$end

$aux_basis
H     0

It is not critical. But if it is an easy fix, then it might be worth doing.

Thanks,
Felix

I'm pretty sure PURECART only affects the orbital basis, since auxiliary basis sets are always spherical. Fix in branch above.

ok, thanks this looks great!

Yes, I would agree that PURECART only applies to the main orbital basis. Makes sense to kick this out as well :)
