Hello,
When I was running HSE06 calculations for UTB systems, I use INCAR like
PREC = Normal
LORBIT = 11;
ENCUT = 300
NELM = 5
ISMEAR = 1; SIGMA = 0.2;
EDIFF = 1E-5
LHFCALC = .TRUE.
HFSCREEN = 0.2
ALGO = Damped
TIME = 0.4
LMAXFOCK = 4
PRECFOCK = Low #Normal

For small size of UTB, I get converged results, but for bigger system,
I always obtain following errors.
Do anyone have similar problem? Any suggestions how to solve this problem?
