Hi,

Do not "randomly" change the fourierspacing.
Are you really using PME in vacuum?

The box size can only change if you have pressure coupling turned on,
which should, obviously, should not do in vacuum.

Now when i increased the fourierspacing from 0.12 to 0.22 nm, it worked 
properly on single node and failed on multiple nodes giving same error of
"The Y-size of the box (4.612312) times the triclinic skew factor (0.866052) is 
smaller than the number of DD cells (2) times the smallest allowed cell 
size(2.000000)"

What possibly could be the reason ?

No. My system is a single protein with charged ligand associated with it. But 
why should box size shrink ? In solvated system it does not shrink. What effect 
vacuum could possibly have on it ?

If it's not constant volume then the simulation will change volume. Why should 
your charged proteins want to stay at the original distance from each other? It 
seems they want to collapse onto each other. You need to rethink your choice of 
ensemble.
