i am running the task(INCAR file option "IBRION = 6"), i get a core file.
the detail information is: (INCAR file option to "IBRION=1" when the Normal operation)

we have never been reported such an error (using IBRION=6) before, I suppose it is not vasp-related.
please check whether your INPUT geometry is reasonable, this may lead to the ZHEGV error

Our POSCAR is like this, and it worked when we tried it on the other machine, but if it has a error, could you let me know?
