When I used shiftk = 0.5 0.5 0.5 I get the following message:

Chksymbreak=1 . It has been observed that the k point grid is not symmetric :
for the symmetry number 2
with symrc1= 0 1 0 -1 1 0 0 0 1
the symmetric of the k point number 61 with components 1.250000E-01 -1.250000E-01 -1.250000E-01
does not belong to the k point grid.
Read the description of the input variable chksymbreak,
You might switch it to zero, or change your k point grid to one that is symmetric.
when I change it to 0. 0. 0.5, or makes chksymbreak=0, I get the following message:

symatm.F90:201:ERROR
Largest error (above) is so large (0.01) that either input atomic coordinates (xred)
are wrong or space group symmetry data is wrong.
Action : correct your input file.
What to do?
Thanks.
