[Pw_forum] Problem with XSPECTRA: file can't open

Dear QE users,

I was trying to run the Xspectra.x code on a linux cluster machine. However,
the xspectra.x code stops just after it starts with some error messages
(please find below). I used the same version of the code for the 'scf' and
xanes-dipole calculations, i.e. version 4.2.1.   You will observed that I
have not done much modifications to the 'xanes-dipole'  input file given in
the examples, in the code. The present calculations are suppose to be dry
runs for more realistic calculations. You will also find below, input files
for the scf and 'xanes-dipole' used for the runs. I guarantee that the
relevant directories/files exist.
Thank you for your attention.

Abdulrafiu Raji,
ICTP, Trieste,
