crash with the BSE and netcdf

[dagosta]

Hi,

I have received consistently this error with my calculations - I did restart from a clean QE calculation to avoid spurious or corrupted databases. I am using Yambo 4.2.2 with a internally compiles netCDF.

At the end of the calculation I get
P0014: [ERROR] STOP signal received while in :[05.03] Independent Particles absorption
P0014: [ERROR] File ; Variable DIP_iR_k_0001_spin_0001; NetCDF: Not a valid ID

I attach the input file and one of the log files for Yambo. I cannot upload the report since it is too big.

How can I solve this problem?

Cheers,
Roberto

Ciao Roberto,
not easy to understand, we should reproduce the error,
anyway, this is a quite old version of Yambo, I strongly suggest you upgrade to a more recent version as many things are changed since then and bugs have been fixed.
If you want to use the QE database you already have it is possible you need to convert them to a new format, there is a ypp option to do that.

Best,
Daniele

Daniele,

I am confused, isn't the 4.2.2 the latest version? No, I see there is 4.2.3 version. I try that.

Ciao Roberto,
we still have to push the bug fix, if you plan to do BSE calculations for a collinear spin case better to wait.
We will do it asap.

Sorry for the last message, I got confused with the release numbering.
