You're selecting, through ibrav = 2,  cubic F (fcc) lattice with lattice
constant a = 4.3988580704 A.
As the error, quite clearly shows, is with atoms 1 and 2 (of course similar
errors may show up for the other atoms),
let us consider the positions in input:
Fe    0.000000    0.000000    0.000000
Fe    0.000000    2.199429    2.199429 -> 0 a/2 a/2

So, atoms 1 and 2 differ by the vector (0,a/2,a/2) that is a Bravais
lattice translation of cubic fcc. This means that in the input there are
atoms that are equivalent for periodicity.

What you should do depends on what you would do. Either you're adding atoms
that are not needed in the input or you are trying to build a supercell
and you have forgotten to change the lattice parameter accordingly.

The number of atoms depends on which system you want to simulate.
