[Pw_forum] Errors with structure optimization

Thank you for your help. I will set cell_parameter and run again.
I have a question, if the total force can not go to zero ( or not smaller
than threshold values that I set at namelist &control). So what can I
change this one to have the best result in structure optimization?
Best.
