Dear Prof. Paolo

Just realized the errors are caused by inconsistent calculations. For instance, 
QE 6.3max is used for the scf calculation, while QE 6.4.1 is mistakenly used 
for the phonon calculation. When I consistently use QE 6.3max, the errors 
disppear. Thanks.

I have no such error. Apparently your data file is corrupted (or your compiler 
is bad).

 

                       ibrav = 0 
CELL_PARAMETERS alat 
   1.014208839  -0.000000178   0.000000000
  -0.507104574   0.878333623   0.000000000
   0.000000000   0.000000000   3.052796800





This is unrelated, but: it was explained yesterday that  using ibrav=0 with 
primitive vectors that are not exactly symmetric is a source of trouble, 
especially in phonon calculations.
