Dear PW users,

I am trying to run an nscf calculation to compute the PDOS of a system but I am getting the following error:

Band Structure Calculation
     Davidson diagonalization with overlap

 %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
     from  cdiaghg  : error #      2763
      problems computing cholesky 
 %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

The scf calculation ran fine. Any idea about what might be causing this problem? The input file follows:


&CONTROL
                 calculation = 'nscf' ,
                  pseudo_dir = '../../../../../pseudos/' ,
                      prefix = 'molsup' ,

                       ibrav = 0,
                   celldm(1) = 50.6576212,

                        ntyp = 6,
