First: Did all these steps run without an error. It should just say
XXX Stop and a "timing" line.

These 4 steps above are absolutely unnecessary (but do not harm).

Did you create a case.klist_band file ? (Otherwise you should get an error)

the "-orb" is not necessary (do x spaghetti -h to see all possible
options), but again it should not harm.
no error ???
ls -alsrt : which files were generated by the last step ??? are they
non-empty, can you look at case.spaghetti_ene and case.spaghetti_ps files ??
