Dear wien2k developers and users:
    I encountered a problem while trying GGA+U calculation. The system is
LiCr2O4, and I want to apply orbital potential to d electrons of 4 Cr atoms
in system. The log file shows that all lapw0, lapw1, lapw2, lapwdm and mixer
ended successfully, while error showed up when cycle 2 started.
------------------------------------------------------
......
LAPWDM END
 SUMPARA END
 CORE  END
 CORE  END

 MIXER END
total_exec
cat
in cycle 2    ETEST: 0   CTEST: 0
 LAPW0 END

>   stop error
-----------------------------------------------------
    The invoking command I used is
runsp_lapw -orb -it0 -p -i 100 -ec 0.000001 -NI
    and the calculation is started from struct file after "init_lapw".
    I checked all error files in directory and there is only one file named
"uporb.error" not empty, which contains only one line: Error in Vorb.

    After that, I tried "clean_lapw" and resubmit job by using "x orb -up".
The calculation stopped with error again and I found this in .outputorbup:

    I have searched previous mails posted in forum. I noticed that there is
one problem solved by Pro. Peter, Blaha similar to mine, which is caused by
the inconsistency of .indm and .inorb files. But I still have no idea of how
to fix this problem. I hope someone can check with my .indm and .inorb files
and give me some advices. Following are two files:
-----------------------.indm-----------------------

    Thanks in advance.
