I used the mdp file listed previously to generate the tpr file. It gave this warning:
WARNING 1 [file membed.mdp]: Can not exclude the lattice Coulomb energy between energy groups then I ignored the warning with -maxwarn 1 and gave the tpr file to g_membed, command line like this: g_membed -f membed.tpr -p topol.top -xyinit 0.1 -xyend 1.0 -nxy 1000 Then it seems the g_membed did one iteration and stopped , it returned this: Back Off! I just backed up step1b.pdb to ./#step1b.pdb.2# Back Off! I just backed up step1c.pdb to ./#step1c.pdb.2# Wrote pdb files with previous and current coordinates ------------------------------------------------------- Program g_membed, VERSION 4.5.3 Source code file: nsgrid.c, line: 540 Fatal error: Number of grid cells is zero. Probably the system and box collapsed. For more information and tips for troubleshooting, please check the GROMACS website at http://www.gromacs.org/Documentation/Errors ------------------------------------------------------- I am wondering if it is because the parameters in the mdp file set improper. How to change it?
