Hello all,

I keep getting a mysterious error when trying to use the option '-pw2casino' on my nscf calculations in an attempt to obtain the wavefunctions for my system. All other calculations run smoothly, it's only when I use pw2casino that I get this error, which occurs immediately after all band energies have been solved:

'Program received signal SIGSEGV: Segmentation fault - invalid memory reference.'

I've tried using '-pw2casino' for two simple test systems: a primitive cell of bulk Si and a Si monolayer (pbe-mt_fhi psuedopotential). When I do these calculations everything runs smoothly; I get no error and obtain my wavefunctions.

Attached is one of the input files that DOES give me the error (PbS supercell). I'm guessing this error arises from either the size of the system or the psuedopotentials I'm using.

Does anyone know what the issue may be?

Thank you,
