I'm trying to do spin-orbit coupling calculations with VASP but when I started to run them, I got this error:

ERROR: non collinear calculations require that VASP is compiled
  without the flag -DNGXhalf and -DNGZhalf

So how may I compile VASP without those flags?

    $\begingroup$ Which OS and which compiler are you using to compile VASP? Or are you using a precompiled binary? If that's the case, you have to either find a version which is compiled without those flags, or compile your own. $\endgroup$
