Dear Eyvaz,

Thank you for your reply.

I found it seems a parallel problems. When I do parallel calculation
for the scf and phonon calculation, it stops with errors.  However, if
I use only 1 cpu to do the scf and phonon calculation, it seems works
well. The serial ph.x has been running for 2 days, I am not sure that
if it is abnormal, since the scf calculation is quite fast with 1 hour
by 1 cpu.

In the output file, it said he found 17 "Representations", It has done
more that 11 Representations now.
