Dear all,

I am trying to run DOS calculations for ceria and I am getting this error though I am using &dos as required. I am new to using QE and to DFT calcualtions in general so can anyone let me know what's wrong, please.

The error :

     Program DOS v.5.1.2 starts on 24May2015 at 12:39:43

     This program is part of the open-source Quantum ESPRESSO suite

My input is

    prefix='ceria_examp'
    DelataE=.1,

     /

I am using the verison: QE 5.1.2

Thank you in advance,
Sara Kilany
