Dear All,
I would like calculate a2F function for GaN example. I modified the epw.in file in the following way:

  phonselfen  = .true.
  a2f         = .true.

During the calculations I received the following error:

Code: Select all

     Calculating kmap and kgmap
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
MPI_ABORT was invoked on rank 0 in communicator MPI_COMM_WORLD 
with errorcode 1.

NOTE: invoking MPI_ABORT causes Open MPI to kill all MPI processes.
You may or may not see output from other processes, depending on
exactly when Open MPI kills them.

Any idea what is wrong?

Hello,

I am actually having the same problem whilst calculating the electron phonon coupling:

-------------------------------------------------------------------
WANNIER : 432.20s CPU 439.60s WALL ( 1 calls)
-------------------------------------------------------------------

Dipole matrix elements calculated

Progress kgmap: ########################################
kmaps : 335.56s CPU 335.70s WALL ( 1 calls)

Have you figure out what was going on?

Regards

I know it has been some time since this thread was started but I have observation on this subject.
I had this exact problem when I tried parallel execution -np6 -npool6 .
Same error as Arnie reported
# ERROR IN: iotk_open_read (iotk_files.f90:611)
# CVS Revision: 1.20
# unit

on the same file: ../patterns.1.xml
I've checked that patterns.xml file and it was just where it should be and looked ok (well, no obvious errors at least) when opened.
So then I tried the same inputs with no mpi run and works great.

Just mine observation, bit late.

Hello,

In theory this error come from a wrong MPI compilation of QE.

You might try to do a
- check that you have all mpi modules correctly loaded

make distclean
./configure

Then check that the configure is correct and that MPI is correctly detected.

Then,

make pwall
make ph

cd EPW/src
make
make

Hi,

I found the same problem with the same error message. The reason in my case is that I forgot to put pp.py and pp.in into the folder.

Because pp.py doesn't have any output, my script didn't give me any error message until the EPW step.

Hope you find this helpful.

Dear tswang,

Thank you for the feedback on this !

Best,
