What WIEN2k version are you using? I expect it to run well in WIEN2k 
18.2 but I haven't tried that calculation with it yet.

Does the old NiO.sh script work, which was given in the post:

There is also:

N.B., there may be a typographical error with the d energy value in 
case.in1 shown in Constraint_U.pdf but it worked after following the 
"[3] Usually it is better to just set the d energy 2-4 Ry above the 
Fermi level..." in that same file [

].
