hi amos,
you should try running each job seperately. i assume you are perhaps in the
begining stage of using QE.
please do one job at a time instead of running running it as a set of jobs
using some script.
anyway, am attaching a simple input file for you ............ try running it
with suitable modifications what ever you want ...........
Axel,
you are right ... i didn't run it as a shell script ........................
so may be i came up with such errors ......................................
