Thanks! It looks like it was a memory issue, the scf calculation never finished
and the error message turned out to be in a different output file.

Do you have enough memory? Looks like a memory issue.

Hello Miles,
I've followed the same tutorial to obtain the band structure and DOS for SrTiO3
using the HSE functional. I used QE-7.1 and open_grid.x worked for me, so I
suppose the problem has to do with your input files.
What do they look like?
Best,
Simon
