Dear Rajdeep Banerjee,

between the different 5.0.X versions of Quantum Espresso, there have been some 
internal changes; as a consequence, the pw2wannier90.f90 file provided with the 
Wannier90 code might not work with all 5.0.X versions.

If I remember correctly, the pw2wannier90.f90 provided with Wannier90 should 
work fine with QE version 5.0.3.

However, we have also committed an updated, working version of pw2wannier90.f90 
in the SVN trunk of Quantum ESPRESSO, so if you are still experiencing problems 
you should also try to recompile the most recent SVN and see if the problem is 
solved (this is the file that is going to be released with QE 5.1, that should 
be released soon - therefore with QE 5.1, there will be no need anymore to copy 
the pw2wannier90.f90 file manually).

If, after trying with the above-mentioned versions, you still experience the 
same problems, please provide more information (pw.x input files, Si.pw2wan 
file, and maybe also the .nnkp file) so that we may try to give you more help.

Best,
Giovanni Pizzi

Dear all,
             I'm facing problems when running pw2wannier.x. It always shows the 
following error regardless of a serial or parallel run :

/espresso-5.0.1/bin/pw2wannier90.x < Si.pw2wan > Si.pw2wan.out
Fatal error in PMPI_Bcast: Invalid buffer pointer, error stack:
PMPI_Bcast(1478): MPI_Bcast(buf=(nil), count=1, MPI_INTEGER, root=0, 
MPI_COMM_WORLD) failed
PMPI_Bcast(1453): Null buffer pointer


For installation I followed the following instructions in
http://www.wannier.org/pwscf.html

"
v5.0 and later
You need one file: pw2wannier90.f90, which should be copied to the "PP/src" 
directory of the QE distribution, replacing the file of the same name that is 
already there. "

Then compiled using
make all

             Please help.
Thanks,
