Dear all,
I am doing a dielectric calculation in parallel, but it crashed without with an erroe. I don't know how to deal with it. The input and output files is attached.
Any suggestion would be appreciated.

Dear Dongxiao,
can you also post your yambo input file?
Best,

Dear Dongxiao,

there is some confusion in your input:
1) You are asking for 3456 bands, but looking at your report and nscf file you calculated a total 1728, you cannot ask more than that.
2) You are calculating a TDDFT spectrum, note that both FxcGRLc and NGsBlkXd are keywords and not name-lists. You should remove the "&" symbol in front of them. I suggest you generate a new input file, you need to modify the values of the variables but not their structure.
Note also that if you assign just 1RL you are neglecting both local field effects and exchange-correlation effects, which is fine, depending on what you aim to calculate, but in this case I would go for and independent particle spectrum which is faster.

Best,
Daniele
