mrgddb fails to read DDBs

Dear ABINIT users

I have calculated DDBs for 12 -points of my desired system successfully and all relevant parameters are the same like :natom,
ntypat, nband, acell, amu, ecut, ixc, lloc, ngfft, occ, rprim, typat, xred, zion.
Unfortunately the mrgddb can not read them correctly and merge them and each time produces different log files . Could you please help me to understand the problem?
I have attached two samples of log files.

Best regards,Payam Norouzzadeh

you are running mrgddb in parallel. Run it in serial.

Dear mverstra

a quick question regarding my post about mrgddb:
How can I run nrgddb in serial? I used parallel mrgddb to run ABINIT example about AlAs but it does not work for my system.
Could you please let me know how can I run mrgddb in serial?
Thanks in advance.

Hello, we need to see the command line you used with mrgddb. Also send in your config.log, abinit version etc... Normally

Code: Select all

mrgddb < ddb.files
should work ok. You are probably running

Code: Select all

mpirun mrgddb < ddb.files
or something like that, maybe in a batch.
