[Pw_forum] starting_magnetization problem

Dear all,

Recently i want to do a spin polarization calculation. After I read the
pw.x input file description, i know if i set the tot_magnetization to
unspecified the amount of electronic magnetization is determined during
the self-consistent cycle. So i set the tot_magnetization to
unspecified. But when i execute pw.x, i get a error message some
starting_magnetization MUST be set. But i get the message" If you fix
the magnetization with "tot_magnetization", you should not specify
starting_magnetization." from the pw.x input file description. If i
still should specify the starting_magnetization? And If i want the
amount of electronic magnetization determined during the self-consistent
cycle, how should i specify the starting_magnetization?

Thanks for your help!
