i don't know this code very well, but i have a hunch what is going on.

if you do a K_POINTS {gamma} calculation, you can cut down
memory requirements and cpu time requirements by using some
special algorithms that take advantage of the symmetry at
the gamma point (e.g. wavefunction is real, not complex).

programs written for the generic (multiple k-points) case,
would have to detect the special case (which has happened here),
and then convert the data to the generic case (which is obviously
missing here, hence this error message).


if you modify your input file to use

K_POINTS {automatic}
 1 1 1 0 0 0

instead, it will probably work.


best regards,
