We can run SP calculations in serial for TiC. >> 1. stdout (abridged) > ... >> TiC.scf1up_1: No such file or directory. > > Was lapw1 really successfull? Thanks for your reminder. We checked and found that lapw1 was actually not successful either--there's no case.output1, case.output2, case.output?file in the case directory. My guess is that the computing nodes are not communicating well with the headnode, so that even the lapw1 finished ok, the output files are not written from computing nodes to the headnode. We are testing the communication now. > >> 3. uplapw2.error >> Error in LAPW2 >> 'LAPW2' - can't open unit: 18 >> 'LAPW2' - filename: TiC.vspup >> 'LAPW2' - status: old form: formatted > > It looks like your initialization was done without spin-polarization, but > runsp_lapw was run. But in this case lapw1 must also be unsuccessful (?). see my answers above. Your possible follow-up is appreciated in advance.
