Yambo-py warning: Wrong serial number for ./SAVE/ndb.QP

[sitangshu]

Dear Sir,

While doing a BSE solution using the yambo py script for Si, I am getting a warning in the external QP corrections (X) and (K):

[04.01] External QP corrections (X)
===================================


[WARNING]Wrong serial number for ./SAVE/ndb.QP
[RD./SAVE/ndb.QP]-------------------------------------------

.
.
.
[04.02] External QP corrections (K)
===================================


[WARNING]Wrong serial number for ./SAVE/ndb.QP

What I did is the following: I ran a GW under PPA computation and after that linked the ndb.qp file obtained from GW to BSE input file. Please let me know if I am doing wrong here.. Attached is the reference file and the input file.

Regards,
Sitangshu

Dear Sitangshu,
please note that your post is not related to the yambo-py interface. Try to post in the right subforum, in this case Running-Yambo, Linear Response.
This is because if the threads are in the right places can be searched more easily and useful for all the community.

The warning you get means the your GW calculations has be done with a different SAVE directory than the one you are using for the BSE, or you changed something as running again p2y.

If you the two calculations were done on the same system this is not a problem, the code just warn you about that.
Best,
Daniele
