Dear QE users and team

I am performing band structure calculations on SiO2 compound using QE+thermo_pw code.

The calculations are stopper with error message "  Error in routine find_projection_type (1):
     problem with inversion".

I used the following input files:

&INPUT_THERMO
  what='scf_bands',
 emax_input=10.5792,
 nbnd_bands=20,

 /

--------------------------------------

and

&control
    calculation = 'scf',
    prefix = 'sio2',
    pseudo_dir = '/home/tarek/software/q-e-qe-6.6/pseudo',
!   verbosity = 'law',
/
&system
    ibrav = 6,
    a = 4.17970,
    c = 2.66691e+00
    nat = 6,
    ntyp = 2,
    ecutwfc=100,
    ecutrho=400,
!   nbnd=20
!   input_dft='pbe',
!    occupations='smearing',
!    smearing='mv',
!    degauss=0.005e0,
/

&electrons
    conv_thr=1e-08,
    mixing_beta=0.7e0,

Would you please help me to recover the problem??

Thanks a lot in advance.
