for crystal_sg units, at each atomic site, you have to specify only those
coordinates that cannot be inferred from the Wyckoff letter. From
Modules/wypos.f90 (under space_group=64) :
ELSEIF (TRIM(wp)=='8f') THEN
tau(1)=0.0_DP
tau(2)=inp(1)
tau(3)=inp(2)
so if you remove the “0” (1st coordinate) it should work. This is specified in
Doc/INPUT_PW.txt:
When atomic positions are of type crystal_sg coordinates can be given
in the following four forms (Wyckoff positions):
C 1a
C 8g x
C 24m x y
C 48n x y z
The first form must be used when the Wyckoff letter
determines uniquely
all three coordinates, forms 2,3,4 when the Wyckoff
letter and 1,2,3
coordinates respectively are needed.
The forms:
C 8g x x x
C 24m x x y
are not allowed, but
C x x x
C x x y
C x y z
are correct.
