The error message tells you that you need something more negative than
-9.908. Adding -ecut -10 to the init_lapw options should work.
Did you use setrmt_lapw to select your RMT values? Better do so.
Carefully check whether your case.struct is right, because such problems
can be a consequence of unphysical interatomic distances due to a wrong
case.struct.
