Is this a copy-paste error in the e-mail text, or what is in actually the input file?
{* separate chains by segid - a new segid starts a new chain *} {+ choice: true false +} {===>} n{============================= water files =================================} I do not see a value entered for the separate chains by segid line, which you have for the protein entry. Secondly, have you looked at the output for error messages and whether or not the first RNA chain is being loaded at all? The input only lines are not very useful without seeing the output messages. Also, it is much easier to examine the script/output if they are attached as files, rather than pasted into the e-mail text as that tends to disrupt formating, which is vital in scripts running properly. I suggest repeating the generate run and making sure to pass the output to a log file, ie; cns < generate.inp > generate.log and attaching both.
