the problem of using neb scripts

[1211642662]

dear sir
When i use the nebspline.pl, there is a error:
“Illegal division by zero at nebspline.pl line 70.”
Using nebresults.pl , the neb.dat is like this:
0 0.000000 0.000000 0.000000 0
1 0.000000 0.029444 -0.250304 1
2 0.000000 0.455837 -0.000475 2
3 0.000000 0.159096 0.033222 3
4 0.000000 0.171574 0.047725 4
5 0.000000 0.214038 0.000000 5
how to
in my OUTCAR:
VTST: version 2.04b, (10/26/11)

It looks like the script is not calculating the distances between images. Did you download all of the vtstscripts and put them in a common directory in your path?

(the second column should be the distances between images, which is not zero)

i have put the vtstscripts in a common directory in my path and i have solved the problem . thank you very much for your time.

I met with the same problem, could you tell me how to solve it? Thank you very much!

I have already solved the problem. That is due to the lack of dist.pl. When I put it in the same directory with nebspline.pl, it works. Thanks!
