Actually the directory is of my own and I have created it in my home directory

Other ideas? Thanks

Hallo GROMACS users!
I'm trying to run a simple md script after running an energy minimization 
script on my system and I'm getting a wired error message
Reading file dynamin_dimer_PR1.tpr, VERSION 3.3.1 (single precision)
Loaded with Money
-------------------------------------------------------
Program mdrun, VERSION 3.3.1
Source code file: gmxfio.c, line: 706
Can not open file:
coarse.xtc
it is strange as the coarse.xtc file should be created by running the mdrun 
command.
Sounds to me like you don't have permission to write in the working directory.

-Justin

that is my submition command line
$MYGROMACSPATH/bin/mdrun -v  -s dynamin_dimer_PR1.tpr  -o dynamin_dimer_PR1.trr 
 -cpo dynamin_dimer_PR1.cpt -c dynamin_dimer_PR1.gro
the .tpr file had been previously created by grompp

I don't know if this is a problem or not, but I just noticed it. If you're using version 3.3.1, the -cpo option doesn't exist. mdrun won't exit with a fatal error in this case, but you still shouldn't be using it.

Aside from that, I would suggest you use a more modern version of Gromacs (4.5.5) rather than one that is certifiably ancient. There may well have been some bug that was fixed 6 years ago that no one even remembers ;)

$MYGROMACSPATH/bin/grompp -v -f pr1.mdp -c dynamin_dimer_EM_solvated.gro -p 
dynamin_dimer_fg.top -o dynamin_dimer_PR1.tpr
and the .mdp file I'm using is

The .mdp file contains a number of redundancies, which should have caused grompp to fail. Also probably irrelevant, but worth noting.

I have also tried to change the .mdp file but I get the same error message.
If I try to use a mdrun from a different version of GROMACS it complains again 
as it is not the same as grompp.
Do you have any tips for solving this problem?
Thanks
