[ERROR] variable: lmnmax NetCDF: Invalid dimension ID or name

Post by nsingh3 » Sun Jan 10, 2021 8:49 am

Dear developers,

I am new to yambo and using it after performing abinit calculations.
I have abinit-9.2.2 and yambo-4.5.3 both compiled with netcdf+hdf.
But when I try to convert from abinit to yambo i get the following error.
Any help will be highly appreciated.

[nsingh3@int1 hBN]$ a2y -F hbn_out_DS2_WFK.nc

Dear Nisha,
can you attach your abinit input files and pseudo-potentials.

Most likely the reason is that, when generating the WFK file, you did not add in input the abinit variable

Code: Select all

prtkbff  1

Hello Davide,

Yes adding the prtkbff 1 in abinit input file solved my problem. Thanks.
