Dear Dr. Prasenjit,
Thank you so much for your reply and the link.
I'm doing the vc-relax calculation but it has been running for more than 36 hours.Is this why you have mentioned that vc-relax is tricky ? I have attached the I/P file for reference and if you could please take a look at it.
I'm also trying the manual relaxation and will let you know the status of my results.
