[Pw_forum] How to run and plot DOS in qe-6.1

[Sudha Priyanka]

Dear experts
     I am beginner in using this Quantum Espresso software and I need to
clarify my doubt regarding the same. I have installed QE-6.1 in ubuntu
16.04 LTS.I have installed QE in Laptop and I have checked the proper
installation by running the example files and successfully got the results.
But when I am trying to run for my own input, I got the error "bash: pw.x:
no input files in the directory". Please tell me how to solve this.

Right now I am doing calculations by coping pw.x from PW path and paste it
in the concerned directory and then I am running all the calculation.


When I am trying to calculate DOS for Ni, I got the following error while
running ni.dos.in. (I have enclosed my input files herein)
I am using the following command to run scf, nscf and dos
For scf: ./pw.x <ni.scf.in >ni.scf.out
For nscf: ./pw.x <ni.nscf.in >ni.nscf.out
For dos: ./dos.x <ni.dos.in >ni.dos.out (Error: Error in routine dos (1):
     reading dos namelist)

Am I running correct or not?

For dos:./pw.x <ni.dos.in >ni.dos.out (Error in routine  read_namelists (1):
      bad line in namelist &control: "" (error could be in the previous
line))
For dos: ./pp.x <ni.dos.in >ni.dos.out (Error in routine postproc (1):
reading inputpp namelist)

Which one is correct: ./dos.x <ni.dos.in >ni.dos.out (or)
./pw.x <ni.dos.in >ni.dos.out (or)
./pp.x <ni.dos.in >ni.dos.out?

Please help me to fix these errors and help me to plot dos..

Regards
Sudha Priyanka
