Hi Pedro,
For the force constant part calculation, it doesn't support Gaussian 09.
I recommended you to use Gaussian 03 to do the calculation. The support
for G09 are considered to be added in the future.
For the RESP charge calculation, if you use the Gaussian09-C.01 or more recent
version you need to change the keyword IOp(6/33=2) to IOp(6/50=1) in the input file.
But for G09 Revision A.01 you don't need to change the keyword in the Gaussian
input file for RESP charge calculation.
Hope it helps,
Pengfei
