As said previously by Mr. Marx, just ignore the warnings, since the influence the band structure should be tiny.

Blaha and L. Marks, Thank you so much your quick replies. We did not do any optimization/minimization of positions of atoms for the investigate compound. We performed on the scf followed by mBJ calculation. The calculation steps are as follows. 1. We have considered the experimental data and generated the structure file 2. Run the scf calculation using PBE-GGA functional (run_lapw -p) 3. grep :ENE *.scf and output is as follows :ENE : ********** TOTAL ENERGY IN Ry = -238079.63530762 :ENE : ********** TOTAL ENERGY IN Ry = -238079.59196930 :ENE : ********** TOTAL ENERGY IN Ry = -238079.53399613 :ENE : ********** TOTAL ENERGY IN Ry = -238079.49597756 :ENE : ********** TOTAL ENERGY IN Ry = -238079.48895398 :ENE : ********** TOTAL ENERGY IN Ry = -238079.47569936 :ENE : ********** TOTAL ENERGY IN Ry = -238079.47476139 :ENE : ********** TOTAL ENERGY IN Ry = -238079.47440358 :ENE : ********** TOTAL ENERGY IN Ry = -238079.47403481 :ENE : ********** TOTAL ENERGY IN Ry = -238079.47393279 :ENE : ********** TOTAL ENERGY IN Ry = -238079.47382999 :ENE : ********** TOTAL ENERGY IN Ry = -238079.47378943 :ENE : ********** TOTAL ENERGY IN Ry = -238079.47377872 4. init_mbj_lapw -> run one iteration using run_lapw -p -NI -i 1 5. init_mbj_lapw -> chosen 0 for original mBJ parametrization 6. Edit the case.inm file by replacing MSR1 -> PRATT and mixing factor 0.2 -> 0.3 7. run_lapw -p -NI -i 100 and the output is as follows :ENE : *WARNING** TOTAL ENERGY IN Ry = -237914.78050225 :ENE : *WARNING** TOTAL ENERGY IN Ry = -237914.29287377 :ENE : *WARNING** TOTAL ENERGY IN Ry = -237913.99063087 :ENE : *WARNING** TOTAL ENERGY IN Ry = -237913.77789778 :ENE : *WARNING** TOTAL ENERGY IN Ry = -237913.64136096 :ENE : *WARNING** TOTAL ENERGY IN Ry = -237913.53375209 :ENE : *WARNING** TOTAL ENERGY IN Ry = -237913.47426784 :ENE : *WARNING** TOTAL ENERGY IN Ry = -237913.41719973 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ warning started from the initial step of mbJ calculation and remains till end of the calculation.

Blaha and wien2k users, We are doing electronic structure calculations for MX2 type compound. As a first step we performed the scf calculation and it is completed successfully without any warning in the total energy. As a next step, we did TB-mBJ calculation to get reliable band gap. However, we end up with warnings in scf file for the total energies till end of the calculations. We also attempted to solve this problem by following some suggestions from you previously for HfO2 system (http://wien.zeus.theochem.tuwien.ac.narkive.com/dXWnRjph/fcore-not-converged-at-rmt-warnings) but still warning remains the same. So, we kindly request you to suggest us a way to solve this problem. We also attached the structure file for your kind reference. Please find the attachment. Thanking you sir, Best regards N.
