Error convertng pw to YAMBO with p2y
Posted: Wed May 13, 2026 3:22 am
Hello,
I am trying to reproduce the results of hBN. I ran YAMBO on quantum espresso files that are shared in the following link.
https://wiki.yambo-code.eu/wiki/index.p ... s_download
I downloaded hBN.tar.gz
I got the following error:

Abort(2) on node 0 (rank 0 in comm 0): application called MPI_Abort(MPI_COMM_WORLD, 2) - process 0
I saw similar posts on this but none of them seem to provide solution. How to fix the issue?
