[Pw_forum] Problem executing file with "ibrav = -12" (with a negative number)

Dear everyone,

I am new at quantum espresso and I am facing a problem.
The description of input files as used in the website, I can use ibrav =
-12 when the unique axis is beta. Here is what the system section looks
like.

---------------------------------------

&system
ibrav = -12
space_group = 14
A = 14.667,
B = 7.886,
C = 10.730,
cosAB = 0,
cosAC = -0.16381,
cosBC = 0,
nat = 33
ntyp = 3
ecutwfc =30.0
spline_ps = .true.
tot_charge = 0
/

---------------------------------------

And this does not work, although the same input file setting ibrav = 12
is executed as expected (but the value for cosAC is ignored).
Sorry if this is a naive question or a question already adressed. I
enclosed the input file for the case this is relevant. I use quantum
espresso 6.0.
 
Many thanks in advance,
