Hi
I'm doing metadynamics on dimethyl-ether(as a test case) using the pwscf
code(-3.1.1 version). The following are some details from the input file

COLLECTIVE_VARS

"distance"  1   2
"distance"  2   3
"distance"  3   1
"distance"  1   5
"distance"  1   4
"distance"  1   6

While running the calculation is stopped showing the following error message

" from check_constraint : error #         1
     on some constraint g = 0 is not satisfied"

am a beginner in running dynamics..could anybody help me regarding this
case. And I also want some explanation regarding the keyword "delta_t" in
the name list &IONS.
Thank You
