Dear all,
I am encountering an error just after finishing the Wannierization step, running by EPW-6.1 and Hubbard U is included in the calculation. Error is pasted here for your reference:
[Calculating kgmap

I have located the 'dnsbare' file in the directory '\save' from the directory '\out' also but still getting the same error. Would you please take a look at this error and resolve it as your earliest convenience.
Thanks.

Hi,

Did you use the pp.py file inside the EPW/bin folder? That should have transferred the dnsbare. Can you attach your input files so that we can reproduce this error?

Best,
Sabya.
