NEB caculation broke down without any error information

Post by lgxyz »

Hi, everyone, recently my NEB jobs boke dowm without any error information. The following is some of the OUTCAR:

Stop just here, no error warning. Anybody has the same experience? Please give me some suggestions. Thanks so much!
