Dear Daniele,
I followed your instructions exactly to fill out the input file, but an unexpected issue occurred after running the calculation. The `SAVE/ndb.kindx` file was modified, causing subsequent input files to fail to generate properly.

How can this be resolved? Will this affect other calculations?

Dear Xiangjun,
I do not get exactly what is the problem. Can you be more explicit on the step you did?
If you updated to yambo5.3 I suggest you to restart the calculations from scratch avoiding reading old databases.
If the ndb.kindx has been regenerated, this should be ok.

Best,
Daniele
