[Pw_forum] Error: pseudo file is empty or wrong

read_ncpp reads a norm-conserving pseudopotential:
is this what you want ?

verify that pseudo_dir is set to the correct value.
The code checks for the existence of the file and issues
a different error message in such a case, but you might 
have an empty file from a preceding failed run. 

Beware: in the 1.2.0 version, some character variables
containing directory and file names are somewhat short.

If you still don't see anything wrong: in PW/readin.f90,
just before the call to read_ncpp, add a line
	call system ('cat '//file_pseudo)
This will send the content of the pseudo file to the output.

If you still don't see anything wrong, you have to go
through  PW/read_ncpp.f90 and see where the code 
stops
