When using w2web, your error is:

When I ignore this warning and accept the changes produced by nn, then it pops up a new question (Use new struct-file?). on clicking on YES, it Displays a message:
*Case-001.struct_nn copied to case-001.struct
old struct-file saved as case-001.struct_init
case-001.inst updated*
And ask to start StructGen again.
On ignoring this question, when I click on x sgroup, it shows following

You MUST NOT ignore this question, but should accept it.

With this you finally accept the struct file from nn, and later on you should NOT accept changes from sgroup.

PS: For such advanced procedures, it is anyway ridiculous to use w2web. At that point you should already be an "expert" in wien2k and use the command line (which you have to use anyway a lot for phonopy).

After copying the proper *S-00x.struct file to your case do:

x nn
   if an error occurs (usually it will):
cp case.struct_nn case.struct
   repeat these 2 lines until nn does not report any error.

x sgroup
x symmetry

Now compare the number of non-equivalent atoms in case.outputsgroup and case.outputnn Then compare the number of symmetry operations in case.outputsgroup and case.outputs. If they agree and no other errors appear in case.outputs, you are ready to initialize:

init_lapw -b -.... optional options for init_lapw (see init_lapw -h)

run_lapw -fc 0.1 (or better) (-p ...)


warning:
*warning: !!! Number of inequivalent atoms has changed. !!! Old value= 34 New value= 40 warning: !!! Bravais lattice has changed. sgroup found: 35 (C m m 2) Note that shift vectors for this space group are defined.*
On further proceeding,  it reflects an error in dstart;-

*ROTDEF - Error 0.0u 0.0s 0:00.68 4.4% 0+0k 29488+24io 82pf+0w*

On the contrary, if I agree on start StructGen again, and run x sgroup then it again show the following warning: *warning: !!! Number of inequivalent atoms has changed. !!! Old value= 96 New value= 40 warning: !!! Bravais lattice has changed. sgroup found: 35 (C m m 2) Note that shift vectors for this space group are defined.*
*warning: !!! Bravais lattice has changed.*
And ask to accept a new file generated by sgroup. When I accept it then in further process, it does not show any error.

But in the Phonopy manual it has been written that, *"Calculate forces on atoms in the supercells with displacements. It is necessary to use |case.struct_nn| file when running |init_lapw|. Note that |case.struct_sgroup| file can’t be used with phonopy."*
*
*
*I am confused, how should I proceed further?*

Thank you!

    Dear Blaha Sir,
    1. First I prepared a case.struct file with optimized lattice
    parameters, having F43m spacegroup (216). Which F lattice. it is as

    2. Then I created a supercell (1x1x1) using wien2k, having P lattice
    but with the same space group. case_super .struct file is as follows:
    -----------------------------------------------------------
    P   LATTICE,NONEQUIV. ATOMS 12

    3. Then I copied case_super.struct to case.struct file and used the
    command (phonopy --wien2k -d --dim="2 2 2" -c case.struct) to run
    phonopy with a supercell of (2x2x2). its output is as follows:
    ---------------------------------------------------

    Python version 3.8.4
    Spglib version 1.15.1

    Calculator interface: wien2k
    Crystal structure was read from "RbZnBi.struct".
    Unit of length: au

    Settings:

    Spacegroup: F-43m (216)
    Use -v option to watch primitive cell, unit cell, and supercell
    structures.

    "phonopy_disp.yaml" and supercells have been created.

    Summary of calculation was written in "phonopy_disp.yaml".

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

    4. It is clear from the output that the space group is not changed.
    It generates one file for a perfect supercell and 3 files
    (case-xxx.struct) for supercells with displacements. case-xxx.struct
    is as follows:

        0      NUMBER OF SYMMETRY OPERATIONS
    
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    5. Then I picked one of the case-xxx.struct files and put in another
    directory for initialization and started step by step
    initialization. and perform x nn: Which Shows following warning:

    WARNING: Mult not equal. PLEASE CHECK outputnn-file WARNING: ityp
    not equal. PLEASE CHECK outputnn-file 6. Then I tried to increase
    RMT up 3. It now shows the following message:
    ERROR !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! RMT( 1)=3.00000 AND RMT( 41)=3.00000 SUMS TO
    6.00000 GT NNN-DIST= 5.89806
    WARNING: Mult not equal. PLEASE CHECK outputnn-file WARNING: ityp
    not equal. PLEASE CHECK outputnn-file

    Please suggest What should I do? I shall be grateful to you!

    Thanks and Regards

        Before that when I run the command x nn, it shows following error:

        WARNING: Mult not equal. PLEASE CHECK outputnn-file WARNING:
        ityp not equal. PLEASE CHECK outputnn-file

        I have tried by putting different values for nn, but it is not
        changing.

        What will be its solution?

            Dear Wien2k users,
            Greetings!
            I am working on XYZ half-Heusler compounds with space group
            no.-216. When I do initialization of a struct  file of a
            supercell. then output of x sgroup shows some warning:

            warning: !!! Number of inequivalent atoms has changed. !!!

            space group are defined.
            Bravais lattice: Orthorhombic C-base centred.
            Kindly help me to solve the problem.

            Thank you!
