Is ccprog=ccsd compatible with geometry optimization

Hello,

I am interested in geometry optimization at the CCSD(T) or DF-CCSD(T) level.
The calculation, however, crashes when executing prop:

 ************************ 2022-11-30 15:42:32 *************************
 Executing prop...

 Allocation of 500.0 Mbytes of memory...

 Number of integral batches:                      1

 Fatal error in exec prop.
 Program will stop.

 ************************ 2022-11-30 15:42:32 *************************

giving the error:
forrtl: severe (24): end-of-file during read, unit 26, file /data/test-opt-mrcc/CCDENSITIES

prop               0000000000400CCA  Unknown               Unknown  Unknown

I suspect that it is because of the ccprog=ccsd option, i.e., one can do geometry optimization only when ccprog=mrcc. Is that the case?

Kind regards,
Evgeniy

A test input:

# CCSD geometry optimization for water with the cc-pVDZ basis set
basis=cc-pVDZ
calc=ccsd
ccprog=ccsd
mem=500MB
gopt=full

unit=bohr
geom
H
O 1 R1
H 2 R1 1 A

R1=2.00000000000
A=104.2458898548

Dear Evgeniy,
Unfortunately, CCSD(T) gradients are currently not available. Geometry optimization is currently possible with CCSD, CCSDT, ... using ccprog=mrcc .
