 Dear Abinit Users and Developers ,

I am training  to calculate the phonon dispersion curves for  different structures of binary compounds (AB). First I had started with the zinc blende structure, and that following the internet  tutorials. Every thing was O.K. and I got the results as should be expected.
Then I moved to Hexagonal structure. I obtained the DDB files, and then I used the mrgddb utility; everything up to here went O.K.
But when I execute the anaddb utility I have an error!! knowing that I modified the trf2_4.in (I changed the brav input into 4 in order to to account for the hexagonal structure).
 I got this mesage error in the trf2_4.log file:
#######
 symdm9 : ERROR -
  Informations are missing in the DDB.
  The dynamical matrix number    17 cannot be built,
  since no blok with wavevector    0.000000E+00    0.000000E+00    2.500000E-01
  has been found.
  Action : add the required blok in the DDB, or modify your input file.

 leave_new : decision taken to exit ...
##########
I suspect that due to the hexagonality of the structure , a lot of input variables in the trf2_4.in and trf2_5.in, probably ,should be changed.
But unfortunately I dont know which?
Any help will be much appreciated

Best Regards
