[Ifeffit] feff doesn't like cluster

Hello,

thank you for the fast response. According to Norbert's
suggestion, I looked in the feff file. The problem seems to
be with the potential 1, assigned to As. Removing this line
and rewriting all potentials in the list makes feff like
the input. However, I don't understand why ATOMS has
generated these ipot values. The atoms.inp is below.
