My mentor said perhaps the damage of evironmental parameters caused this problem.

I tried PHonon/examples/example03, for the el-ph calculation of FCC-Al, everything shows fine:
  running the scf calculation with dense k-point grid...  done
  running the scf calculation...  done
  running the el-ph calculation...  done
  running q2r...  done
  running matdyn for frequency calculation...  done
  running matdyn for a2F(omega) calculation...  done
  running lambda.x for lambda calculation...  done
I also tried it by QE v4.3.2 half year ago, also no any problem occurred.
"q-point not allowed" is usually given from the non-high-symmetry point in the q-points mesh, such as doing vc-relax instead of scf before phonon calculation. You can verify it in your *.dyn0 file.

I'm sure there is something wrong I've never been aware. I copied everything in the file of run_example today, and what a pity it still cannot run. I am so frustrated. Please help me!

and if you try now? without changing anything in example07?
Yes,I have tried for several times yesterday (The words "right now" I've chosen), copied the file of run_example with nothing changed.
