Thank you for your reply Dr. Paulatto. The problem is that I used to run the 
same type of calculation (scf first and then phonon calculation) on my personal 
computers and never had got this error (I got other errors which I was able to 
solve). However, when I try to do this calculation on a cluster it gives me the 
error that I mentioned in the previous email. In order to be clear, I put the 
input files of both scf and phonon calculations here:

SCF INPUT:

Dear Amir,
this error means tha tthe phonon code cannon find the wavefuntions from the
non-self consisten calculation which is performed at the beginning of the run.
there are many possible causes for it, you will need to provide more details
(i.e. input files, running environment) to have a proper answer.

kind regards
