Dear Prof. Blaha,


Thank you very much for the help!!

First, I have activated both min and run_lapw in optimize.job to find the
energy of the relaxed one, and could realize the serious mistake now.

Second, yes, the calculation crashes in the first cycle for +10.

Third, I have run x dstart, run_lapw -I -fc 10.0 -p for +10 and found the
following message at the first cycle:
 "forrtl: severe (67): input statement requires too much data, unit 10,
file/case/./case.vector_1".

May I find the volume optimization with a smaller RKmax value to avoid the
large data error and later I can have scf with the optimized lattice
parameters. converged RKmax and Kmesh?
