VASP is commercial software which can only be licensed to groups that are hired by a single legal entity, which is incompatible with the way we operate. We have tried to negotiate an agreement with the licensor which would let us install the software everywhere on our infrastructure, but without success. For that reason you may have to install VASP yourself (though see "Site exceptions" below). Please read the terms of your own license, as you are likely subject to the same restriction. This limits the support we are allowed to offer to users who need help installing the software. Please see [[#Building VASP yourself|"Building VASP yourself"]] below for instructions on installing the software.
