I use this file to perform a scf calculation

  ibrav     = 14,
 celldm(1) =     16.22739617

 celldm(3) =      0.77459667
 celldm(4) =      0.64549723
 celldm(5) =      0.64549723
        nat =    10 ,

and then I run ph.x with this input file:

--
&inputph
  prefix   = 'pwscf',
  epsil    = .false.,
  fildyn   = 'pwscf.dyn',
  ldisp    = .true.
  fildvscf = 'dvscf'
  nq1=1,
  nq2=1,
  nq3=1,

     Error in routine phq_setup (1):

Is there any way to easily fix this? should I have to manually specify nr1,
nr2, nr3?

Any help is appreciated.

Best regards,
Carlos Reis.
