The function of q2r.x is summarizing a series of dynamic matrics and transferring to real space force constants by FFT. Such series dyn files, declaring as fildyn='*' in the input file of q2r.x, are named as *0, *1, *2,..., where *0 contains the dyn files list. Therefore, when you have only one dyn file, it is not recommanded to form the force constants. Or, if you really want, you can make a file, let's call it dyn.G0, and write such contents in it: 1 1 1 1 0.000000000000000E+00 0.000000000000000E+00 0.000000000000000E+00 Then change the file name of dyn.G to dyn.G1, and using q2r.x by the input: &input zasr = 'simple' , fildyn = 'dyn.G' , flfrc = 'fc' , / I do not guarantee such a method can help you to achieve meaningful result~~~~

I am using QE-4.3.2 on ubantu 11.10 of 32 bits the error is shown;;;; file /home/espresso-4.2/phcal/si/ dyn.G0 not found reading grid info from input but i have a file of dyn.G not dyn.G0. I have also look in q2r.f90 file. >>>> nr1,nr2,nr3: dimensions of the FFT grid formed by the q-point grid ! nfile : number of files containing C(q_n), n=1,nfile ! followed by nfile cards: ! filin : name of file containing C(q_n) ! The name and order of files is not important as long as q=0 is the first<<<< I am unable to exploit the meaning of above statement due to my new entrance in QE.
