By the way, what is the ficticious cell mass (wmass) in variable cell calculation? How do I estimate it?

^^^^
you forgot the atomic masses here.

e.g.: 
Fe 55.845 Fe_VDB_PBE.UPF
S 32.064 S_VDB_PBE.UPF
H 1.008 H_VDB_PBE.UPF

even though they are not used, they need to be there.

SZ> ATOMIC_POSITIONS
SZ> Fe 0.85720064E+01 0.11652506E+02 0.12440106E+02
SZ> Fe 0.13580956E+02 0.10724365E+02 0.12776464E+02
SZ> S 0.11304998E+02 0.13262380E+02 0.15575250E+02

...and this looks like cartisian coordinates in 
atomic units, so you should use ATOMIC_POSITIONS {bohr}.
default is {alat}...

hope this helps,

axel.
