Please check too uplapw2.error, case.output2up and case.scf2up files, if anything wrong is reported there.

  Would you answering the following question help us to think better?
  Why does one expect to be well converged the program for any imposed fixed spin moments?


  Your,

  PS: Does it stop at first cycle or higher cycles?

    Hi Wien2k community !!

    I am running a FSM calculation for Fe50Cu50. The lattice parameters are
    a=b=2.4324473, c=3.44 (angstroms) and the space group is P4/mmm.
    When I perform the FSM calculation from m=0.1 to m=4.0 with a step of
    0.1 the calculation stops for the m=0.1 value. However I get results for
    all the other values of the magnetic moment.
    Also, if I employ different values of the lattice parameters, sometimes
    the calculation stops at different values of the magnetic moment. For
    example, for c=3.43 angstroms (with proper changes in a=b), the FSM only
    gets values from m=0.1 to m=0.9 and if c=3.45 angstroms is used then the
    calculation runs well from m=0.1 to m=3.5.
    The error message is always the same, i.e.

    This really puzzles me. Can anyone help me to fix this problem ?

    Best regards.
