We started HSE06 calculations for various materials. it freezes after 4 readings everytime for every material we have tried. materials we tried it on are 2D TMDs. please help us with this isue 
Dear fakir_chand1,
Please provide us with your input files (INCAR, POSCAR, POTCAR, KPOINTS) as well as the OUTCAR and standard output for the smallest system for which this error occurs. Without them it is impossible to proved any assistance.
Kind regards,
Pedro
Dear Pedro,
This zip file contains the requested files. This calcultion was performed to find the Density of states of monolayer PtS2. calcultions ran fine for PBE functionals but froze after 4 steps for the HSE06 calcultions. This has happened for every single system that I have tried HSE06 calculations for.
Thanks.
Sir, please help with our problem
Dear fakir_chand1,
I am looking into your issue. Could you just answer me this question, to check if we are experiencing the same issue: does VASP report any sort of error message to the standard output file when you run this job? It won't be in the OUTCAR, but in the *.out or *.err file that your machine writes during execution.
Kind regards,
Pedro
Dear fakir_chand1,
Could you please also provide me with the input files that you used for the previous calculation with which you generated the WAVECAR file that you are trying to read now with ISTART=1?
Kind regards,
Pedro
Dear Sir,
thanks for looking into our issue.
The VASP doesn't show any kind of error anywhere.
king regards.
dear sir,
This was input file for structure optimization
system=HETERO
PREC=Accurate
ISTART=0
ICHARGE=2
#####
#ELECTRONIC OPTIMIZATION
ENCUT=500
ISMEAR=0
SIGMA=0.1
#####
#IONIC RELAXATION
ISIF=3
IBRION=2
NSW=200
EDIFF=0.000001
EDIFFG=-0.01
####
ISYM=0
LWAVE=.FALSE.
#LCHARGE=.TRUE.
NCORE=2
IVDW=10
and incar file for generating CHGCAR file was following
system=HETERO
PREC=Accurate
ISTART=0
ICHARGE=2
#####
#ELECTRONIC OPTIMIZATION
ENCUT=500
ISMEAR=0
SIGMA=0.1
#####
#IONIC RELAXATION
ISIF=3
IBRION=-1
NSW=0
EDIFF=0.0000001
EDIFFG=-0.01
####
ISYM=0
LWAVE=.FALSE.
#LCHARGE=.TRUE.
NCORE=2
IVDW=10
k points were 15*15*1 and POTCAR file was same as in HSE06 calculations
Dear Sir, we are waiting for your response. any solutions so far?
Kind regards,
Team Kurukshetra
Dear fakir_chand1,
I managed to isolate the place in VASP where the problem happens. I am now trying to understand if this is an issue with the code itself or with the setup you provided. I will do my best to come back to you quickly with an answer.
Kind regards,
Pedro
