Hi,
table-extension affects the tables for both pair and non-bonded ionteractions.
non-bonded interactions use tables when you use, shift, switch, PME or user
potentials.
You are not by chance simulating large molecules which consist of a single
charge group
or of very large charge groups?

Hello,
the system I'm referring at is an already equilibrated one. Before, I had
already made steepest descents.
You are correct that I have non-bonded interactions at distances that are more
than cut-off+table ext distance. I used to put table ext very bin in contrast
to my box. My system box was something less than 5nm before and table-ext was
5nm at the time. Now that I simulate a much bigger system than before (in one
dimension 6 times bigger), I realized that I had to increase also this
parameter.
Since this parameter affects only the pairs interactions I do not see the
reason why my simulations are affected by it, even if it is already big enough
(5nm in a 30nm box). My pairs interactions are (should) not (be) more that 1nm
far away..
I had extensively tested this parameter in gromacs 3, and I saw that it
affects the pairs interactions only. So I decided to increase it very much and
not bother with it.
Is there any difference in newest versions? Does it affect anything more?
Thank you,
Nikos

Hi,
Your solution seems to indicate that your system is unstable.
My guess is that your system was not well equilibrated and at some point
some non-bonded interactions were at a distance of more than cut-off+tab_ext.
That would make your system explode. In that case increasing tab_ext to 2 nm
should also suffice.

Hello,
this has to do with my personal experience of using Gromacs version
4.0.3. So this is not an
official response.
The story:
While I was trying to run an NVT simulation in a monoclinic box I encountered
the following problem:
Fatal error:
25 of the 336080 bonded interactions could not be calculated because some atoms
involved moved further apart than the multi-body cut-off distance (0.895 nm) or
the two-body cut-off distance (0.895 nm), see option -rdd, for pairs and
tabulated bonds also see option -ddcheck
and the:
Not all bonded interactions have been properly assigned to the domain
decomposition cells
Trying to put aside the fact that my system had any bug I found in the net the
following:
http://www.gromacs.org/pipermail/gmx-developers/2008-January/002373.html
In order to overcome this error I increased the value of
table-extension = 30
in my mdp file in such a way, as to be bigger from my biggest dimension I had
in my system. The ran proceeded (until now that I'm writing this e-mail)
without any problem.
This value has to do with the cut-off of pairs1-4 LJ interactions and is
calculated in nm.
JFYI
