Error in GW calculation (can't read kss and scr files)

Post by naresh124 » Tue Jun 25, 2013 9:05 pm

Hi,
I am doing a GW calculation for Si, using input file s which has given in Abinit tutorial. Gw calculation reads kss and scr file from previous calculations.
but my calculation is not reading kss and scr files and exits leaving following error in Abinit-7.0.4

setup_sigma.F90:313:WARNING
Using WFK filetgw1o_DS1_WFK

wfk_read_ene.F90:123:ERROR
hdr_io returned fform/=0

leave_new : decision taken to exit ...

But it is running successfully in Abinit-5.3.4. Could you help me how to solve to run this calculation in version 7.0.4.
here i attached input file

The code is looking for tgw1o_DS1_WFK but can't find it. Starting with version 7.0 the GW part of ABINIT uses _WFK files instead of _KSS files as input.
