[Wien] Volume optimization of Fixed spin moment structure

Three immediate things:
1) I would be concerned about the accuracy of the energy from a FSM calculation.
2) I would be concerned about whether the scripts are setup correctly
to do a volume optimization with a FSM calculation.
3) The error you are seeing should be investigated by looking in your
case.dayfile as well as :log and the relevant lapw1 error files.

In terms of 1), while it's fine to do a FSM calculation to establish a
particular spin state I would want to switch to a normal runsp
afterwards. Of course this means that you cannot stabilize an unstable
spin state, but then that's the relevant physics.

In terms of 2), check the actual script that is in optimize.job and
edit it by hand if neede.
