Dear Users:

I am new in QE. I want to know for which lattice parameter Manganese will
have minimum potential energy.  For this the following input file is used.
But every time same error message is showing "  convergence is NOT achieved
after 100 iterations: stopping. ". Can anyone help me out ?


!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!        INPUT    !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 &control
    calculation='vc-relax'
    prefix='Mn_bcc_8'
    restart_mode='from_scratch'
    wf_collect = .false.
    pseudo_dir = '/home/mash/Desktop/qe/qe-6.3/pseudo'
    outdir= 'Mn_bcc_8/temp'
    tprnfor = .true.
    tstress = .true.
    etot_conv_thr = 1.0E-5  ,
    forc_conv_thr = 1.0D-4 ,
