Dear users,

Following is my scf input for spin polarised D03 (Fm-3m) structure of V3Al.

&CONTROL
  calculation = 'scf'
  prefix = 'v3al'
  outdir = './'
  pseudo_dir = './'
  tprnfor = .true.
  tstress = .true.
  etot_conv_thr =   4.0000000000d-05
  forc_conv_thr =   1.0000000000d-04
  verbosity = 'high'

&SYSTEM
  ibrav = 2
  celldm(1) = 11.512210722
  space_group = 225
  nat = 4
  ntyp = 4
  ecutwfc = 60
  ecutrho = 400
  occupations = 'smearing'
  smearing = 'cold'
  degauss = 0.005
  nspin = 2
  starting_magnetization(1)=1
  starting_magnetization(2)=-1

The output shows the error:

     Error in routine check_atoms (1):
     atoms #   3 and #   6 overlap!

What is causing the issue and what should be changed in the input file?
Any kind of help is appreciated.
