I have used tpbconv -until to extend a US simulation without error, and I
assume that tpbconv -extend is also fine for US simulations.
1. Are you using the same version of gromacs mdrun as you used to produce your
.cpt file initially?
2. what happens when you run gmxcheck on the .cpt file?
3. what happens when you run mdrun with the umbrella0.tpr file?
4. what happens when you use 0_prev.cpt?
What I am getting at is that you have stated that the checkpoint file is
corrupted in your subject line, but you have not provided any evidence of that.
I do appreciate that you have pasted your exact commands. The next step is to
see if there is any way to test your hypothesis that the checkpoint file is
corrupted.

Hi,
I am using Gromacs 4.5.3 and want to extend my umbrella sampling runs.
But i get an errror while running the "mdrun" step of extension command, saying
"Start of file magic number mismatch, checkpoint file has 1993, should be 171817. The
checkpoint file is corrupted or not a checkpoint file"
Below are the commands I have used to run the umbrella sampling run
grompp -f md_umbrella.mdp -c npt0.gro -t npt0.cpt -p topol.top -n
index.ndx -o umbrella0.tpr
mdrun -pf pullf-umbrella0.xvg -px pullx-umbrella0.xvg -s umbrella0.tpr
-o 0.cpt -c 0.gro -x 0.xtc
I used the below commands for extension:
tpbconv -s umbrella0.tpr -extend 20000 -o umbrella_new.tpr
mdrun -s umbrella_new.tpr -cpi 0.cpt -pf pullf-umbrella_new.xvg -px
pullx-umbrella_new.xvg -o new.cpt -c new.gro -x new.xtc (at this step
i get the error)
I have not touched the cpt files. Its the same as it was outputed.
Please can I know what might have gone wrong.
Kind Regards,
chetan
