When I use .cpt file with tpbconv, I get the error pasted below. I checked the cpt file with gmxdump and it is not empty and has the same number of atoms.
Reading toplogy and stuff from rex_1.tpr Reading file rex_1.tpr, VERSION 4.5.1 (single precision) NOTE: Reading the state from trajectory is an obsolete feaure of tpbconv. Continuation should be done by loading a checkpoint file with mdrun -cpi This guarantees that all state variables are transferred. tpbconv is now only useful for increasing nsteps, but even that can often be avoided by using mdrun -maxh Modifying ir->bContinuation to TRUE READING COORDS, VELS AND BOX FROM TRAJECTORY restart1.cpt... ------------------------------------------------------- Program tpbconv, VERSION 4.5.1 Source code file: tpbconv.c, line: 451 Fatal error: Number of atoms in Topology (8962) is not the same as in Trajectory (0) For more information and tips for troubleshooting, please check the GROMACS website at http://www.gromacs.org/Documentation/Errors On Tue, Feb 1, 2011 at 1:04 PM, Justin A.
