Dear Servaas,
Tested again in 'vacuum' and I saw no problems. Here goes what I did:
#----------------------------------
cat << EOF >| leap.in
verbosity 1
source leaprc.ff99SB
ad = sequence { DA5 DA DA3 }
saveamberparm ad da_amber.top da_amber.crd
savepdb ad DA.pdb
quit
EOF
tleap -f leap.in >| leap.out
acpypi -x da_amber.crd -p da_amber.top -d # acpypi generates em.mdp and
md.mdp
cat << EOF >| md.mdp
cpp = /usr/bin/cpp
define = ;-DFLEXIBLE
integrator = md
nsteps = 250000
constraints = none
emtol = 1000.0
emstep = 0.01
comm_mode = angular
ns_type = simple
nstlist = 0
rlist = 0
rcoulomb = 0
rvdw = 0
Tcoupl = no
Pcoupl = no
gen_vel = no
nstxout = 100
pbc = no
EOF
editconf -bt cubic -d 1.0 -f da_amber_GMX.gro -o da_amber_GMX.gro
#Single precision
grompp -f em.mdp -c da_amber_GMX.gro -p da_amber_GMX.top -o em.tpr
mdrun -v -deffnm em
grompp -f md.mdp -c em.gro -p da_amber_GMX.top -o md.tpr
mdrun -v -deffnm md
vmd md.gro md.trr
#----------------------------------
As you may suspect from the beginning it may be something in your mdp file.
Case the example above works, I would suggest you to try the mdp for solvent
box I sent before in a long simulation.
Good luck.
Regards,
Alan
