[Wien] Fwd: Lapw2_1.def ERROR

You provide everything except the most relevant file -- case.struct

Comments:
1) With a largish unit cell like this you only need 1 k-point for
optimization
2) An RKMAX of 3.5 is absurdly small. You probably misinterpreted the CIF
file, which I suspect contained partial occupancies.
3) It appears that your cell contains Hf/K/C/O. You probably should have
RMTs for C and O near to 1.0, which means that you need an RKMAX of about 5
for a decent calculation.
4) Why are you using Wien2k 16.1? Is this a legal copy? If it is legal then
you should update. If you "acquired" 16.1 from somewhere then I doubt that
anyone should help you.
