qexml_read_planewaves IOTK error

[giacsport]

Dear All,
I am not a deep expert of Linux. I tried installing YAMBO on my machine using this string

./configure --with-netcdf-include=/home/giacomo/src/net/include/ --with-netcdf-lib=/home/giacomo/src/net/lib/ --with-iotk=/home/giacomo/src/espresso-4.2/iotk/ --with-p2y=4.0 PFC=ifort FC=ifort FCFLAGS="-O2 -assume byterecl -g -traceback -nomodule -fpp -D__INTEL -D__FFTW -I../include -static" --enable-largedb --enable-dp --with-blas="-lblas -lg2c" --with-lapack=-llapack

then

make yambo

and

make interfaces

Everything seems to be correct. it seems that the compilation has been successful.

Now, I run a PW job. It is the example01 in the 4.2 release of espresso. A simple band calculation for bulk Si.
When i launch the ./p2y in order to obtain the yambo input, I get this message

[giacomo@domitianus silicon.save]$ p2y

I checked the list and understood the reason. Then I correct my PWSCF input accordingly and I obtain this other message

Could anyone kindly help me to fix this problem?
I attach the config.log

Thanks in advance!
My very best

Hi Giacomo.

Well, I found several problems in linking the iotk in these days....(I'm going to post in a while again for the happiness of yamboers..)

I've read in a previous post on the forum, viewtopic.php?f=1&t=75 that you can even link the lib_iotk from version 4.0.5 and read safely the .save from espresso_4.1.1 version for example.
This case is tested and it works.

in your case, since the epsresso_4.2. is very new, maybe there are still some instabilities with that.
I suggest you to stay on the previous version of espresso for the moment.

ciao, have fun!
federico.

Hi Giacomo

another comment: use force_symmorphic=.true. instead of nosym=.true. if you have a version of PWSCF
more recent than 4.0.5.

A question: did you use wf_collect=.true. in your PWSCF input?
if not use it.

Looks like the problem to me: check that there is a file gvectors.dat inside the .save directory.
If there is, the problem lies elsewhere...

Dear Conor,
yes there is that gvectors.dat file.....
But now by changing the lib_iotk to those of the 4.1.3 and adding wf_collect=.true. and force_symmorphic=.true. in the PW input
the yambo input seems to be created correctly by "./p2y"

What do you mean for "elsewhere"? Are there additional instructions for debugging the compilation?

My very best,
Giacomo

Dear Giacomo,

and adding wf_collect=.true.

No other problems - this is all you had to do. Let us know if you run into problems immediately with running yambo, though.
Regards,
Conor

Dear Conor,
thanks a lot for your availability!

P.S.: One more question (hopefully the last....) if I can.... for the parallel installation (open-mpi) I used the same script

./configure --with-netcdf-include=/home/giacomo/src/net/include/ --with-netcdf-lib=/home/giacomo/src/net/lib/ --with-iotk=/home/giacomo/src/espresso-4.1.3-mpi/iotk --with-p2y=4.0 PFC=mpif90 FC=ifort FCFLAGS="-O2 -assume byterecl -g -traceback -nomodule -fpp -D__MPI" --enable-largedb --enable-dp --with-blas="-lblas -lg2c" --with-lapack=-llapack --with-mpi

changing thus PFC=ifort -> PFC=mpif90
and adding "--with-mpi"

the compilation seems to be successful

then "make yambo" and "make interfaces"

but when I launch the "./p2y" I have

[giacomo@domitianus bin]$ ./p2y
forrtl: severe (174): SIGSEGV, segmentation fault occurred
Image PC Routine Line Source
p2y 000000000041B0D7 Unknown Unknown Unknown

libc.so.6 000000363F21C40B Unknown Unknown Unknown
p2y 000000000041992A Unknown Unknown Unknown

And honestly I am not able to figure out the reason.
Have you got some hints to suggest me?

Still excuse me for the stress!


Thanks!
Ciao!

Dear Conor,
please ignore my previous message.... I think I fixed the bug on my own!

Thanks in any case for your availability!


Very best
