run into an error that seems to be already discussed in this forum.
This is about "reading band namelist" error when trying to run bands.x. I
have already tried solutions suggested in the other posts such as
making the prefix and outdir the same as the pw.x's input files but it
is not solved. Since all questions related to this problem that i have
found pertain earlier version of QE (I used QE 6.0), could it be
version-related problem?</font></div><div dir="ltr" id="yiv0341969220m_-5682444400051907019yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1482756244494_9100"><div id="yiv0341969220m_-5682444400051907019yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1482756244494_9156"><font id="yiv0341969220m_-5682444400051907019yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1482756244494_9101" face="verdana, helvetica, sans-serif">My input for bands.x is the following</font></div><div id="yiv0341969220m_-5682444400051907019yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1482756244494_9153"><font id="yiv0341969220m_-5682444400051907019yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1482756244494_9101" face="verdana, helvetica, sans-serif"><br clear="none"></font></div></div><div dir="ltr" id="yiv0341969220m_-5682444400051907019yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1482756244494_9104">&bands<br id="yiv0341969220m_-5682444400051907019yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1482756244494_9105" clear="none"> outdir = './work/',<br id="yiv0341969220m_-5682444400051907019yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1482756244494_9106" clear="none"> prefix='C_hexa_scf',<br id="yiv0341969220m_-5682444400051907019yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1482756244494_9107" clear="none"> filband='C_hexa_band.out',<br id="yiv0341969220m_-5682444400051907019yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1482756244494_9108" clear="none"> lsym=.true.<br id="yiv0341969220m_-5682444400051907019yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1482756244494_9109" clear="none"><div id="yiv0341969220m_-5682444400051907019yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1482756244494_9154">/</div><div id="yiv0341969220m_-5682444400051907019yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1482756244494_9155"><br clear="none"></div></div><div dir="ltr" id="yiv0341969220m_-5682444400051907019yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1482756244494_9111"><font id="yiv0341969220m_-5682444400051907019yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1482756244494_9112" face="verdana, helvetica, sans-serif">and the error I got is</font></div><div dir="ltr" id="yiv0341969220m_-5682444400051907019yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1482756244494_9113"><div id="yiv0341969220m_-5682444400051907019yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1482756244494_17765"><br clear="none"></div><div>Program BANDS v.6.0 (svn rev. 13079) starts on 25Dec2016 at 22:44:23 </div><br id="yiv0341969220m_-5682444400051907019yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1482756244494_9115" clear="none"> This program is part of the open-source Quantum ESPRESSO suite<br id="yiv0341969220m_-5682444400051907019yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1482756244494_9116" clear="none"> for quantum simulation of materials; please cite<br id="yiv0341969220m_-5682444400051907019yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1482756244494_9117" clear="none"> "P.
