I read in the FAQ that this could be caused by bad pseudopotentials. I used norm-conserving pseudos from PseudoDojo, obtained for PBE. Is it why my calculation failed? If so, how do I generate (or where do I find) pseudos for TPSS?

Dear Michal,
from my limited experience, meta-GGA functionals are quite unstable, try to increase the Fourier transform grid a lot, i.e. you take the default values from the output of pw.x:
   Dense  grid:    32557 G-vectors     FFT dimensions: (  75,  75,  75)
ad set n1,n2 and n3 to something quiet a bit larger, ideally with small prime factors (2, 3 or 5), in this case it could be 128
