In your post at [1], I don't see it labeled as your case.dayfile, but I 
believe that is what it is.  There I see lapw0, lapw1, lapw2, lcore, hf  
-mode1 -redklist, and

error: command   /home/hmd/wien18/hf hf.def   failed

The wien18 in the path.  Does that mean you are using either WIEN2k 18.1 
or 18.2?

As you know from the WIEN2k updates page [2], there have been bug fixes 
and improvements made to WIEN2k.  For example, changes in source code 
have been made to lapw0 corresponding to SRC_lapw0 and to hf (SRC_hf and 
run_kgenhf_lapw).

Have you tried the calculation using the latest WIEN2k version to check 
that the problem is not just caused by a bug in the old version?

Also, I don't recall if you posted about your standard output for the 
calculation.  As sometimes error messages are printed in the standard 
output.  If using a terminal, the standard output is displayed there.  
In w2web, I think there was a link that had to be clicked on to view it 
but I don't recall the name of the link. If using a computer system with 
a job scheduler, the error messages are often times written to a 
standard error log.
