I saw the same behavior. I had runs A and B. While run A finished with no problem, run B finished with no error, but the WFSX file was never written.
One thing I noticed is that I had the longoutput variable set to false in run B (this is the default); perhaps setting longoutput to true sets the COOP.Write to true and that's why sometimes it appears like this particular line is not needed. I have not checked on that though, maybe Carlo can verify this hypothesis ? I also agree that the COOP.Write is not written in the manual as a prerequisite to get the WFSX file, so at first it looks odd that runs finish with no error messages but the file is just not written. Thank you for your kind message Guan Ping, this is just to corroborate what Carlo is seeing in his runs, and to point to a possible source of where things are different in the input files, that I have not checked yet but may be a plausible explanation.

But in fact, without setting " COOP.Write true " no WFSX file is generated in my case, with the input fdf file attached in my first mail. With the COOP setting, ALL the wavefunctions are plotted, and this is not what I need. Can you check my input file please? Thanks, C. Motta 2010/11/5 Guangping Zhang < [email protected] > Dear Carlo and Salvador, In order to get . WSFX file generated by siesta (beyond 3.0-b) we should just do the following setting: WriteWaveFunctions T WaveFuncKPointsScale ReciprocalLatticeVectors (or pi/a as you wish) %block WaveFuncKPoints 0.000 0.000 0.000 from 1 to 2 # Gamma point wavefunctions 1 to 2 % endblock WaveFuncKPoints And these are enough. I am using siesta-3.0-rc2,and go well with the settting above. Best.

Was it just an error in your input file? I am facing a similar problem; I beleive my input file is correct. Can you share the info on how you solved the problem? Thanks, -Salvador.
