Yes I think so. It was a while ago and I remember that it drove me crazy. Pw.x would start normally but it would stop without crashing, like waiting for input. I remember that I fixed it as I have explained. By the way, it also happened to me that the problem would show only if I exceeded a list with more than 1000 points.


Quoting Paolo Giannozzi <p.gianno...@gmail.com>:

Let me understand: are you saying that there might be a problem with the
so-called "here document" syntax:

pw.x < EOF
long input here
EOF

if the long input is too long? funny

Dear Fanhao

I have encountered the same problem and the solution is easy. It
doesn't have anything to do with QE.

Simply create an independent nscf input file that contains the big
list of kpoints. Do not create the nscf input file within the same job
submission script using EOF.

Then simply type pw.x < input and it should work.
