<div dir="ltr"><div>It's a known problem and has been explained more than once here. If you want to use symmetry, it is safe to explicitly specify the Bravais lattice (with the correct "ibrav") and exactly symmetric atomic positions, or better, space group and Wyckoff positions. You may still provide lattice vectors and no ibrav, and/or not-so-symmetric atomic positions though. It works, usually, but sometimes it doesn't and leads to funny errors. Alternatively, you may disable symmetry<br></div><div><br></div><div>Paolo<br></div><br></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Sun, Oct 11, 2020 at 12:10 PM Naharin Jannath <<a href="mailto:naharin.jannath0o0@gmail.com">naharin.jannath0o0@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><div>Hi..</div><div>I have a problem, that is I am shown this error when i'm trying for bands.x calculation for bands_pp file in quantum espresso.. it says -</div><div><br></div><div>"Wrong classes for D_3d"</div><div><br></div><div>What can i do now? someone said '
