[QE-users] Error in running DOS.x

[Yichen Qian]

Hi All,

I recently want to calculate the electronic density of state. I already ran the scf calculation and nscf calculation. But when I was running dos.x, I will get

 %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
     Error in routine dos (1):
     reading dos namelist
 %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

     stopping ...

I had do some research about this error. It looks like my nameless is somehow wrong. But I don’t know which namelist I made mistake. Below are some namelists of my calculations. I was using Linux 3.10.0-862.11.6.el7.x86_64 x86_64 system and vi editor to write files.

I appreciate your help and thanks in advance.

Best,
Yichen


SCF calculation:
&control
calculation = 'scf',
restart_mode='from_scratch',
prefix = 'Tungsten',
pseudo_dir = '/home/yqian1/Potentials/',
tstress = .true.
tprnfor = .true.
outdir = 'W_output/',
etot_conv_thr = 1.0D-5,
forc_conv_thr =1.0D-4,

NSCF calculation:
&control
calculation = 'nscf',
prefix = 'Tungsten',
pseudo_dir = '/home/yqian1/Potentials/',
tstress = .true.
tprnfor = .true.
outdir = 'W_output/',
etot_conv_thr = 1.0D-5,
forc_conv_thr =1.0D-4,

DOS calculation:
&dos
 prefix='Tungsten'
 outdir='W_output/'
 ngauss=1
 degauss=1.5d-2
 DeltaE=1.0d-2
 fildos='Tungsten.dos'
