[petsc-users] Mumps Error

[Max Rudolph]

I'm not sure if you figured out a solution yet, but I think that you might want to run with 

-mat_mumps_icntl_14 100

>> I suspect it has something to do with the preconditioning or setup of the matrix I am trying to invert. The matrix becomes singular at energy = 0 eV, and is nearly singular for values close to that, but the code is failing on energies relatively far from that point. The affected energy interval is [-0.03095, 0.03095].
