Something is very wrong with your calculation. First, please check
that you have the latest version of aim since I believe at one time
there was a small bug for cubic cases.

If you have the latest, check that you are following the instructions
and that rmin is not too large -- in general it should be less the
RMT. If these fail send you case.struct and case.inaim to my private
email.
