Do you use wien2k? If yes, look in the output of sgroup (case.outputsgroup). 
Probably it will have proposed you a better case.struct, that has not this 
problem. During init_lapw, accept this proposal (and also similar proposals 
from nn).

That's enormous (but probably you have only 1 k-point). I hope you have access 
to a supercomputer.
