Dear Dr. Yedukondalu

I think it is related to the old XML I/O of the data for the tetrahedron method.
Please use the new XML routine (./configure --enable-xml) or the new version of QE (6.2).

Best regards,
Mitsuaki Kawamura

Dear Users and Experts,
    I am using QE v.6.1.  I ran DOS calculation for Silicon using Occupations='fixed' in 'scf' and 'nscf' calculations and it was finished successfully and dos output file is created. However, when I used occupations='tetrahedra' in nscf (both scf and nscf), the dos.x calculation was  terminated with the following error (I have tried for couple of systems apart from Si). Now, my question is how to use occupations='tetrahedra' in scf and nscf calculations to compute the DOS for any system. Input files are attached.
