[Pw_forum] graphite cell optimization failed

[Alain Allouche]

I have exactly the same problem with ifort on my MacPro and gfortran  
on my AMD cluster


  %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% 
%%%%%%%%%
      from read_kernel_table : error #         1
      No \"vdW_kernel_table\" file could be found
  %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% 
%%%%%%%%%
