[Wien] Fermi + Syntax error

Your LOWER and UPPER BOUND values are the same and SOS values are 0.  I 
have seen something similar before.

One user was able to solve the problem by using the latest Wien2k 
version and not an old buggy version 
[http://www.mail-archive.com/wien@zeus.theochem.tuwien.ac.at/msg09737.html].

I think another user had to increase NUME in SRC_lapw1/param.inc using 
siteconfig (siteconfig recommends that NUME = sqrt(MEMORY/10)/10, so the 
computer should have enough random access MEMORY to do so) 
[http://www.mail-archive.com/wien%40zeus.theochem.tuwien.ac.at/msg07933.html].

A -25% volume change seems quite large, so maybe that could also cause 
the problem.  I would suggest you first try and make sure you can 
successfully calculate some smaller volume change like -5%, before you 
continue towards such a large change in volume.
