<div style="line-height:1.7;color:#000000;font-size:14px;font-family:Arial"><div>Dear all,</div><div><br></div><div>I have compiled QE 5.4.0 through gfortran (4.6.2) and gcc (4.6.2) under MinGW of Windows 7 (32-bit). However, when I run the pw.exe, it gives an error as the blue information. Even reading the input files successfully run before, the same error occurred. It seems the program can create the temp directory assigned by outdir variable, but, it cannot generate the save folder - ${prefix}.save.</div><div>As a confirmation of authority of directory, the older version - 5.1.2 (also compiled by same compilers and environment) - was tested on the same input files and all runs were succeed.</div><div>Would you like to let me know how to overcome this problem, or let me know the location of sub-routine of check_tempdir.</div><div>Many thanks,</div><div>Best Regards,</div><div><br></div><div><div><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 255);"><i> Program PWSCF v.5.4.0 starts on 9Aug2016 at 16: 6:14</i></span></div><div><br></div><div><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 255);"><i> This program is part of the open-source Quantum ESPRESSO suite</i></span></div><div><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 255);"><i> for quantum simulation of materials; please cite</i></span></div><div><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 255);"><i> "P.
