The RAM of the computer was probably not sufficient and the job got
killed. For such large systems you need to do MPI parallel
calculations by adding a line "nlvdw:..." in the file .machines (see
user's guide for detail) and using option -p (runsp_lapw -p ...). You
should also run the other modules (lapw0, lapw1, lapw2) in parallel.
Beside this, I will very soon (probably tomorrow) send to the mailing
list updated Fortran files for the nlvdw module. With these updates,
MPI calculations should be much faster.

2) What omp are you using? What mpi?
OPENMP 201511 and Open MPI: 3.1.2 are used
3) What is the FFT size you are using, how much memory do you have?
I am using 8 Gb Ram & I don't know how to check FFT size.
A guess; the FFT size is too large for your memory.

Dear Wien2k users,
I was trying to simulate structural
optimization of an Li-Sn alloy using nlvdw functional
*rev-vdW-DF2. *I have successfully used this functional for
other simple structures like SnS2.**However, I have
encountered an error in the first cycle as "Error in NLVDW"
this time. I have attached the struct file herewith this mail.
Looking forward to hearing from you. However, if any other
information is required, please let me know. Thanks in advance.
