Error with type information not consistent with number of types

#1 Post by a1k » Wed Jun 26, 2013 8:32 am

Hi all,

I'm running into this error when I am running calculations for a simple 2x2 CdS cell:

Code: Select all

 POSCAR found type information on POSCAR  Cd
 ERROR: the type information is not consistent with the number of types
My POSCAR file is:

Code: Select all

Cd1 S1
1.0000000000
        4.1364998817         0.0000000000         0.0000000000
       -2.0682499409         3.5823139803         0.0000000000
        0.0000000000         0.0000000000         6.7160000801

     0.666666627         0.333333313         0.876999974
I am using a standard 4x4x4 Monkhorst-Pack kmesh, and this is my INCAR file:

Code: Select all

 SYSTEM =  GaN 0001 surface 2x2 Ga_T4

 Electronic strcutre
   PREC   = high
   ENCUT  = 550 eV ; NELMIN = 2 ; NELMDL = -5
   LREAL  = .FALSE.   real space projections
   AMIX   = 0.2
   ALGO   = fast
   ISTART = 0

#  LCHARG = .FALSE.
   NBANDS = 68

   GGA = PE
   LORBIT = 11

 Ionic Relaxation
   NSW    = 99   number of steps for IOM
   IBRION = 2
   ISIF   = 3
   PSTRESS= 0

 DOS related values:
   ISMEAR =    0  ; SIGMA = 0.01
   EMIN   =   -15 ;  EMAX = 15
Any idea where I may be going wrong? Thanks!
