I have used init_lapw using the example case.struct files and have no problems there. When it comes to making my own file I was wondering what are the initial values I would need to run the nn, symmetry and sgroup programs? From chapter 4 of the user's guide it seems all you would need are the title, lattice type, format mode,and lattice constants and angles. When I try to run x nn on a .struct file with just these is does not complete, and if I fill in the first line of the atomic-index the x nn program will complete but without returning any values and the symmetry and sgroup programs will not run. I am working with A2B2O7 type transition-metal pyrochlore oxides.

The web interface is more convenient for a few things. So long as you are moderately experienced with Wien2k, it should work fine.
