Dear Peter Blaha & wien2k users,
I was trying to reproduce results of Spinel ZnAl2O4 [ref:- Solid State
Sciences 13 (2011) 1638-1648] with space group fd-3m (origin 2),
coordinates of Zn, Al, O at (.125,.125,.125), (.5,.5,.5) and
(.2654,.2654,.2654) respectively with RMTs [Zn=2.4, Al=2.2, O=1.2).
The following struct.file is created.

Please confirm that my struct.file is correct.
After initializing sucessfully with RmtKmax=7 & 100 k points in the
whole BZ, while running SCF I got a ROTDEF error. I am sending the
mixer.error file for your reference.
 'ROTDEF' - no symmetry operation found.
 'ROTDEF' - for jatom, index 2 4
 'ROTDEF' - atomposition of jatom   0.5000000   0.5000000   0.5000000
 'ROTDEF' - atomposition of index   0.5000000   0.7500000   0.7500000
Plz help me to pinpoint the problem.
Thanking you,
