Dear VASP users,
I am performing GW calculations using the VASP-6.4.2 version and got an error as pasted here

Code: Select all

|     If you are not a developer, you should not encounter this problem.      |
|     Please submit a bug report.  
Could you please help me to fix this issue?

Unfortunately we don't have a proper solution for that problem at the moment, but you can circumvent it by switching off symmetry (ISYM=0 or ISYM=-1). This will lead to possibly more irreducible k-points and a larger computational effort.
