[Wien] error in x lstart

Dear Minnghao, 

IMHO you have been trying to run spin-polarized calculation (runsp_lapw) 

and did not choose a spin-polarized calculation while doing init_lapw. Or, 
conversely, 

you might choose spin-polarized calculation in init_lapw and then run only 

run_lapw. Is this true? If yes, start again init_lapw from structure file 
(erase everything else) 

and say no to the option "Do you want to run a spin-polarized calculation?" 
at the end of init_lapw.

Then simply run run_lapw. 

Hope this could help. 

Tomas

Thanks for the kind instruction. I already fixed the structure problem, and 
it seems fine right now after initialization. But when I tried to run the 
SCF, I encountered another problem with error file like this:




Error in LAPW1

 'INILPW' - can't open unit:  18

 'INILPW' -          status: old          form: formatted                   
   

 'LAPW1' - INILPW aborted unsuccessfully.





I also attached my structure file here:

Can any one give me any hint for that error?




Thanks a lot and Best regards,

Looks to me that your atomic positions are in the hexagonal setting, when 
they need to be in the rhombohedral setting [http://www.mail-archive.com/

Hi all, 



I encountered a problem while I run the initialization process for LiCoO2

I set the RMT value automatically with 0% reduce. Everything is fine until I
did the lstart initialization. If I set a higher cutoff energy between -6Ry~
-10Ry, it always warn me that some of the atom core level leakage like 
following:





 SELECT XCPOT:
  recommended: 13: PBE-GGA (Perdew-Burke-Ernzerhof 96)
                5: LSDA

               19: PBEsol-GGA (Perdew etal. 2008)
  SELECT ENERGY to separate core and valence states:
  recommended: -6.0 Ry (check how much core charge leaks out of MT-sphere)
  ALTERNATIVELY: specify charge localization
  (between 0.97 and 1.0) to select core state

But if I further lower down the cutoff energy, like -11 or -10.5 it will 
give the error like following:
