Your LOWER and UPPER BOUND values are the same and SOS values are 0. I have seen something similar before.

One user was able to solve the problem by using the latest Wien2k version and not an old buggy version [http://www.mail-archive.com/wien@zeus.theochem.tuwien.ac.at/msg09737.html].

I think another user had to increase NUME in SRC_lapw1/param.inc using siteconfig (siteconfig recommends that NUME = sqrt(MEMORY/10)/10, so the computer should have enough random access MEMORY to do so) [http://www.mail-archive.com/wien%40zeus.theochem.tuwien.ac.at/msg07933.html].

A -25% volume change seems quite large, so maybe that could also cause the problem. I would suggest you first try and make sure you can successfully calculate some smaller volume change like -5%, before you continue towards such a large change in volume.

Dear Sir Gavin Abo
Thank you for you kind response. I have checked these links. What I understood is to increase Emax value. Any other option please? The error file (uplapw2.error) has following message

    There is usually a more detailed message for 'FERMI - Error' in
    one of the *lapw2.error files:

    You checked all error files in the case directory (cat *.error),
    and they were empty?

        Dear Wien2k Users

        Can you please pull me out of this error? Many times it is
        appearing while performing Optimization calculations. The
        wien2k version is 12 and installed on fedora 17 64 bit.
        Lattice constant I used is 4.397 and it is ternary alloy with
        25 % doping of a TM. The error message is
