[Wien] lapw2dm error in LDA+U calculation with spin-orbit coupling.

Has spin-orbit been properly initialized (with the requested magnetization
direction ?

I do not see the symmetry operations from   initso  in your
struct file (and you do not show your case.in so file).

lapwdm with -so checks the symmetry (needs to do a symmetrization of the dmats)
and will stop, if the symmetry is incorrect.
