Dear Mohammad,

1.In the SCF input for the supercell you have:

conv_thr = 1.0d-20

This is extremely low! Try some value in-between 1.0d-10 and 1.d-15.


2.In the HP input for the supercell you have:

ethr_nscf = 1.D-14

This is also extremely low! Try the default value of 1.0d-11.


If you still have a problem when using e.g. conv_thr=1.d-10 and 
ethr_nscf=1.d-11 then please put input and output files on Google Drive or 
Dropbox and send a link to us (do not forget to check the permissions of the 
shared folder).

Subject: Re: [QE-users] Calculating U parameter for Ni in LiNiO2 using hp.x

Dear Lorenzo,

Thank you for your prompt reply.
Using qe_6.6 (in which calculating force and stress is implemented) the 221 
supercell relaxed with the U obtained from the output of hp.x for the primitive 
cell, but the same error appeared. What do you recommend?

Best,

Mohammad,

ShirazU

The most likely cause is that you did a mistake in the atomic position
or cell size.

kind regards
