Hi there,

I am trying to perform a vc-relax calculation but keep getting the error 
message

from  read_namelists  : error #         1
      reading namelist ions


Here is my input file:

&CONTROL
                 calculation = 'vc-relax' ,
                restart_mode = 'from_scratch' ,
                  pseudo_dir = '/scratch/bth/Programs/Espresso/pseudo/' ,
                      prefix = 'Co',
