[Wien] problems in band structure

Hi,
For the band structure with spin-orbit and orb, I always use this trick.

 x lapw1 -band -c -up -orb -p
 x lapw1 -band -c -dn -orb -p
 x lapwso -band -c -up -orb -p
 x lapw2 -band -qtl -c -up -so -p

In essence, your missing  -band in x lapwso -c -up -orb -p.

Best of luck.

Dear Prof. Blaha and wien users,

I performed a supercell calculations generating 60 atoms in a unit cell. For the same, k points were chosen between 1-20 for which scf converged successfully and DOS perfectly plotted.
But, For the band structure calculations, the calculation work fine upto:
 x lapw1 -band -c -up -orb -p
 x lapw1 -band -c -dn -orb -p
 x lapwso -c -up -orb -p
 x lapw2 -band -qtl -c -up -so -p

whose partial results are shown below:

But for [x spaghetti -up -so -p], I constantly got an error as:


 number of k-points read in case.vector=          51
0.064u 0.060s 0:00.13 92.3%     0+0k 0+0io 8pf+0w
error: command   /home/ghimire123/WIEN2k_11/spaghetti upspaghetti.def   failed

I have redone a number of times to plot the band structure but stuck at the same point.
Should I also mention that this type of error never occured before. 

Your suggestions will be very helpful to solve this problem.
Thanks in advance
