Vasp 5.4.4 Installation !!link!! -
Optimized specifically for calculations restricted to the Gamma-point only, which significantly reduces memory and compute time for large structures.
If you only want to build a specific version, use:
FC = mpiifort FCL = mpiifort FFLAGS = -assume byterecl -w -mkl=sequential OFLAG = -O3 -xHOST MKLROOT = /opt/intel/oneapi/mkl/latest BLAS = LAPACK = BLACS = -lmkl_blacs_intelmpi_lp64 SCALAPACK = $(MKLROOT)/lib/intel64/libmkl_scalapack_lp64.a $(BLACS) Use code with caution. Adding ScaLAPACK and FFTW
When using modern Intel MKL, linking can be simplified using the -mkl compiler option. Update your BLAS , LAPACK , and ScaLAPACK definitions to point to the appropriate MKL paths if the automated flag is not used: vasp 5.4.4 installation
: VASP was launched as a serial execution when it expected MPI initialization, or MPI libraries mismatch.
Installing (The Vienna Ab initio Simulation Package) is a milestone for many computational researchers. While newer versions exist, 5.4.4 remains a "workhorse" version due to its stability and compatibility with various legacy scripts.
tar -xzf vasp.5.4.4.tar.gz cd vasp.5.4.4 cp arch/makefile.include.linux_intel makefile.include # Start with Intel template Update your BLAS , LAPACK , and ScaLAPACK
: Linux (Ubuntu, CentOS, RHEL, or Rocky Linux) Architecture : x86_64 Dependencies Checklist
If compiling with newer GCC/GFortran versions (GCC 10+), you may encounter argument mismatch failures. Fix this by adding -fallow-argument-mismatch to your FFLAGS in makefile.include .
If these files exist, the installation was likely successful. You should run a small test calculation (e.g., a single-point energy calculation for a Silicon unit cell) to ensure the output is physically reasonable and no runtime errors occur. tar -xzf vasp
VASP 5.4.4 works perfectly with:
ncl : The non-collinear version required for calculations involving spin-orbit coupling or non-collinear magnetism. To compile all three versions simultaneously, run: make all Use code with caution.
