Hi, For the band structure with spin-orbit and orb, I always use this trick.
?x lapw1 -band -c -up -orb -p ?x lapw1 -band -c -dn -orb -p ?x lapwso -band -c -up -orb -p ?x lapw2 -band -qtl -c -up -so -p In essence, your missing? -band in x lapwso -c -up -orb -p. Best of luck. ? Regards Chinedu Ekuma? Ekuma?????????????????????????????? ? ...The Ways of God are Mysterious ???????????????????

For the same, k points were chosen between 1-20 for which scf converged successfully and DOS perfectly plotted. But, For the band structure calculations, the calculation work fine upto: ?x lapw1 -band -c -up -orb -p ?x lapw1 -band -c -dn -orb -p ?x lapwso -c -up -orb -p ?x lapw2 -band -qtl -c -up -so -p whose partial results are shown below: starting parallel lapw1 at Fri Feb ?1 17:52:56 JST 2013 -> ?starting parallel LAPW1 jobs at Fri Feb ?1 17:52:56 JST 2013 running LAPW1 in parallel mode (using .machines) 9 number_of_parallel_jobs [1] 17533 [2] 17594 [3] 17655 [4] 17716 [5] 17806 [6] 17867 [7] 17887 [8] 17907 [9] 17927 ............................ ........................ ........................ ??

Should I also mention that this type of error never occured before.? Your suggestions will be very helpful to solve this problem.
