Hi all,


I am using EPW v.5.8. I am getting following error.

As per previous discussion suggests to modify eps5 to eps4 in subroutine ktokpmq in kfold.f90. Is it still the same solution or there has been some modification in latest version?

! now add the phonon wavevector and check that k+q falls again on the k grid
!
xxk = xxk + DBLE(sign) * xxq
!
xx = xxk(1) * nkc1
yy = xxk(2) * nkc2
zz = xxk(3) * nkc3
in_the_list = ABS(xx - NINT(xx)) <= eps5 .AND. &
ABS(yy - NINT(yy)) <= eps5 .AND. &
ABS(zz - NINT(zz)) <= eps5
IF (.NOT. in_the_list) CALL errore('ktokpmq', 'k+q does not fall on k-grid', 1)

Hi Rijan,

Please attach your files in order for us to debug. I am not sure what code is even reading in your case since you are supplying both filkf and nkf. You are supposed to supply either of them but not both.

Best,
Sabya.

Hi Sabya,

I removed the filkf and ran only with nkf and got rid of that error. I do have another question. How do I restart my calculation from previously stopped calculation due to time limit.

Rijan

Hi Rijan,

Depends on which calculation you are trying to restart. If it is some quantity on fine-grid such as transport coefficients, there are tags such as "restart= .true." that can work.
For coarse grid calculation, there is no restart feature at this moment.

Best,
Sabya.
