Dear Paolo,
I have even retyped the input for bands.x with the correct quote (') and also 
used "~/qe-6.0/bin/bands.x -i C_hexa_band.in" to run it but it's still not 
successful with the same error message. I use the full path for calling bands.x 
instead of only "bands.x" because if I did that, for some reason it's bands 5.0 
that is running. In this case the program seems to be waiting for input which I 
don't know what to type. It's what is showing when I used "bands.x -i 
C_hexa_band.in"

In that state the terminal idles and nothing happened even if I typed anything, 
until I aborted it by Ctrl+C. I also tried moving outdir in all input files to 
the current folder just to see if something changes but it was also to no avail.

Best regards,Wahyutama

 Use "bands.x -i input-file", not "bands.x < input-file"; check that there are 
no funny characters in the file and that all quotes are quotes and not 
something elsePaolo

 Dear PW_forum members,
I run into an error that seems to be already discussed in this forum. This is 
about "reading band namelist" error when trying to run bands.x. I have already 
tried solutions suggested in the other posts such as making the prefix and 
outdir the same as the pw.x's input files but it is not solved. Since all 
questions related to this problem that i have found pertain earlier version of 
QE (I used QE 6.0), could it be version-related problem?My input for bands.x is 
the following
&bands
   outdir = './work/',
   prefix='C_hexa_scf',
   filband='C_hexa_band.out',
   lsym=.true.
/
and the error I got is
