Hello,

I want to  calculate the normal vibrational spectra of PF6 anion.
 After the energy minimization, I found that the structure has lost his
symmetry. It does not have Oh symetry.  I compared this structre with
ab-initio which is not matching.
I have pasted the input file for energy minimzation.
WHy structure is loosing its symmetry or why its not giving proper local
minima.
