Dear Vahid,
the code is suggesting you what you have to: you forgot to specify  
celldm(1), i.e. the main lattice parameter. Which, in your case will be  
9.127/.529177 bohr.

Furthermore, I've noticed you've specified the cell also using the  
CELL_PARAMETERS card; keep in mind that they will are ignored, unless  
ibrav=0.

best regards
