Are you getting during the "x symmetry" step of init_lapw that it "does 
not contain inversion"?

GaN_3db.struct_sgroup ? (c/e)
c
  next is symmetry

0.0u 0.0s 0:00.03 0.0% 0+0k 160+48io 1pf+0w

The init_lapw script does a check using grep, is grep working ok and 
showing after "x symmetry" that the output file "does not contain 
inversion"?

username at computername:~/wiendata/GaN_3db$ grep INVERSION *.outputs
  PGBSYM: SPACE GROUP DOES NOT CONTAIN INVERSION

The messages that you seem to be missing in the output on the screen in 
the terminal appear to be related to the echo command. Are you running 
init_lapw directly in the terminal, or are you perhaps running from 
within a job script, or do you know if you perhaps you have something 
set on your system that might be redirecting echo from the terminal to 
somewhere else like an output file?  You might check if the echo command 
is working for example with:

username at computername:~/wiendata/GaN_3db$ echo $WIENROOT
/home/username/WIEN2k
