Dear Wien2k Users & Developers,   I have a strange problem with the 
symmetry step (during the initialization procedure), seems not to be reported 
to the mailing list before.  My original system was rather a big one, so I 
created a smaller struct file to track the error (attached).  Struct file was 
checked with sgroup before initialization, there are no problems with rounding 
of positions as well.   During the initialization, symmetry reports the error:  
---------- ERROR ------------------  ERROR: (multiplicity of atom           2 
)*(number of pointgroup-operations)  ERROR: is NOT = (number of 
spacegroup-operations)  ERROR: MULT:           1  ISYM:          12  NSYM       
    6  ERROR: Check your struct file with    x sgroup  ---------- ERROR 
------------------   Space group is #148 R-3 with 6 symmetry operations. In the 
attached struct file there are 2 inequivalent positions: (6f) and (1a) 
=(0,0,0). If you remove the 1a atom, symmetry has no problems, but when (1a) is 
present, error pops up. It looks like symmetry wants to have 12 symm 
operations, instead of 6 (?).  Is there an error in the symmetry program or how 
can I deal with such a structure?   best,   Bartek Wiendlocha  Department of
