Dear Paolo,

Thank you for your help!
Actually I had followed the input guidelines and left it unspecified in
order to get the default value. By specifying the newoutdir in the input
file the program starts, however now it crashes with

 %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
     task #        23
     from importexport : error #         1
     copying the data-file.xml file
 %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

I'm currently using version 6.3 of QE.

Moreover, when I specify "export" as direction, the conversion of the
charge-density.dat file to non-binary format, that should take place before
the error, does not seem to produce an .xml file in the newoutdir, but it
always copy the binary charge-density.dat file.
Thank you again for your help!
Best,


Michele
