What happened?

I am attempting to plot the van hove correlation for bulk Na metal:

`analyzer = collections.OrderedDict()

for temp, xdatcar_path in temp_path.items():
if temp == 300:
ionicstep_start = 10764
elif temp == 600:
ionicstep_start = 4943

st = Xdatcar(xdatcar_path, ionicstep_start=ionicstep_start).structures
print(len(st))
analyzer[temp] = DiffusionAnalyzer.from_structures(st, specie="Na", temperature=temp, time_step=1, step_skip=1, smoothed=False)`

It give me below error:

10000

I am unable to understand that the XDATCAR file is not empty then why it is unable to read? Kindly @shyuep 
Thanks in advance!

### Code snippet

```python
st = Xdatcar(xdatcar_path, ionicstep_start=ionicstep_start).structures
print(len(st))
analyzer[temp] = DiffusionAnalyzer.from_structures(st, specie="Na", temperature=temp, time_step=1, step_skip=1, smoothed=False)`
```


### Log output

```shell
