[Wien] Spin-Orbit compatibility - problem in WIEN2k_14

[Peter Blaha]

Hi,

Hard to answer this, as I cannot really reproduce it.

lapw2 has got some modifications in case of SO   AND   the -qtl switch
(or when ghostbands appear and outp.f is called).

It could be that your case is such that you have qtl-b warnings ??

on unit 1001 the partial charges of the 1st atoms should be written.
unit 31 should not be used anymore.
But maybe there is a certain situation where problems can happen, but as 
you said, starting with wien2k_14 from the beginning, the error cannot 
be reproduced.

--------------------
Similar with your second report, since I cannot reproduce it nor know 
any details, it is hard to comment on it. For sure, the format of the 
case.scf file has been changed in a few places which could eventually 
cause problems for certain tools.

It is for instance clear, that the "analysis" in w2web (or the 
"scfmonitor" on the command line) will not work properly with "old" 
scf-files.
