a2y conversion

[zchen]

Hi all:
I have problem to use a2y to read the KSS file created by abinit-5.8.4. I have problem to do conversion for abinit-6.0.4 so I think abinit may change the format . This time I used abinit-5.8.4. I used a2y in yambo-3.2.4-r.855.
The error message is:

a2y -F ../tgwo_DS2_KSS

In source file hdr_io.f90, at line number 143

I really do not understand what is wrong.

It sounds strange. Can you attach a tar file with ALL the files needed to run abinit and reproduce the error ? If you could include in the archive the output/log files of your run it would be useful.

Andrea:
Thank you very much. I will send you an e-mail attached with a tar file which icludes tgw.in (input file), tgw.files, tgw.out (output), log, 06-C-GGA.fhi (pseudopotential). You can directly run on abinit-5.8.4. In this reply I only include the input file. Cell is a trilevel graphene.

No e-mail, please. Upload the tar file on the board. Thanks

I cannot find the way to attach my tar file.

In the screen where you compose your message there is (below the text window) an "upload attachment" button. Press it and upload the file. If the tar format is not correcly recognized change the extension in .txt.

Hope it help

Hi all:
Attached is the tar file which include a input file, files file, out put file and the ppseudopotential file. These files allow you to run on abinit. However, after running abinit I cannot do the conversion to yambo using a2y.

Hallo Zhifan Chen

I think that the problem is that your calculation is spin polarized that is currantly not supported by Yambo.

Best,
m

Dr. Gruning:
Thanks. However, after removing the spin the results are the same. May be ABINIT changed output format starting some version. But I do not know

Hallo Zhifan Chen

For my production runs I am using the 6.4.2 version and I did not meet any problem with conversion.

However with that version I could not run your input getting problem with not symmetric grid.

I was able to run it with abinit 5.3.4 but only I deleted istwfk2 *1 or changed it to istwfk2 12*1
then I have no problem with conversion with a2y.

So please check your abinit input.

Cheers,
Myrta
