Dear GROMACS users,

I'm having problem using genbox while trying to solvate my micelle structure. The program produced error "cannot allocate memory". I checked the mailing list archive, and found that Dr. David once told to check the limit command. I tried to type "limit" but the command was not found. Do I need to move to specific directory to use this command? I'm using OS Kernel: Linux version 2.6.9-34.ELsmp (Red Hat 3.4.5-2). Or Maybe something wrong anywhere else?.. I've include the error message (just in case).

: Cannot allocate memory



You don't have enough memory available.
See the command: ulimit -a

You can try also to use the double version of the program (genbox_d instead of genbox), allocate swap on the machine (man mkswap), or use a computer having more memory to create your input file.

Cheers,
Stéphane
