[Pw_forum] Ce pseudo generation

I'm trying to do a Ce pseudopotential.
I followed the steps that Prof Paolo Giannozzi posts in his web (
http://www.fisica.uniud.it/~giannozz/QE-Tutorial/tutorial_pseudo.html),and
with the available information about the lanthanum pseudo (
http://www.quantum-espresso.org/pseudo/1.3/html/La.html) I construct my
inputs(refering to the necessary steps to construct one).
I achieve to do well the step 1 and 2(all electron and logarithmic derivates
calculations, respectively),but in the third step (generation of the pseudo)
I have some problems that i can't recognize.

I put my .in and .out files:
