[QE-users] HSE calculations

Dear all;

I am doing HSE calculation on TiO2 Anatase using NC pseudopotential.
The code runs but after a while quits out without any errors. Well, I played with the ecut, ecutfock, #nodes and processors, kpoints and sometimes but the code quits out or I get Cholesky error or this error:


 EXX smooth grid is not compatible  with symmetry: change ecutfock

I have increases ecutfock, but the same thing happens again.

Any help or suggestion is highly appreciated.

Here is my input:



&CONTROL

  calculation ='vc-relax'

  outdir = '.'

  prefix = 'HSE-"60"-k444-q222-EXX-default'

  pseudo_dir = '/home/ma36813/sg15_oncv_upf_2015-10-07',

  tstress = .true.

  verbosity = 'high'

&SYSTEM

  ecutwfc=60,

  ibrav = 0

  nat = 6

  ntyp = 2

  input_dft='hse',

  conv_thr=1d-09,

  mixing_beta=0.7d0,
