Dear "coldwind1978"

Please post your question to the forum ML for sharing information
more effectively... Thanks to the attachment of your input,
I see your problem. This is just a typo:
ndvik2 --> ndivk2
(as you see, the error message pointed out the problem correctly. ;-) )

Thanks to the Josef W. Zwanziger's perl script,
http://www.abinit.org/wws/arc/forum/2005-03/msg00025.html
you can check whether you have such typos of the input variables
in your input files.
I just thought, it would be very nice to place such perl script as "abchk"
in ~ABINIT/Utilities, and keep it updated for version-up ...
How do you think, Xavier ?

In passing, I should add a comment to my previous posts:

"http://www.abinit.org/about/?text=search"; is also helpful
to search pages inside the ABINIT web site.
Merci beaucoup, Yann Pouillon and Jean-Michel Beuken (the WEB creator) !

Have a nice weekend,
Masayoshi

When kptopt is negative, ndivk must be initialized
in the input file, which is not the case.
Action : initialize ndivk in your input file, or change kptopt.
