[Pw_forum] Error running dos.x

[Zhiting Tian]

Thanks.
I have fixed the problem. I set npool to be 4 at the beginning, but I guess that for dos.x, I should not have npool > 1. 
wf_collect is a good point since I have never paid attention to this keyword. In this case, since dos.x doesn't read wave function, it is OK. But I will keep it in mind for the cases where wave functions are read.

Why not try wf_collect = .true. and disk_io = 'default' in pw.x ? At least, when I calculated nscf after scf, it does not work if disk_io = 'low'. The similar thing may occur in dos.x case.
Good luck.
