What output do you get from gmxcheck -f martin_md_290K_100ns_tau1.xtc ? Also, can you extract that problematic frame with trjconv and run g_density on that one frame (what happens?). Also, can you make a new .xtc that is missing that last frame and see what g_density does?
These will help you to figure out what is going on. Chris. -- original message -- Hi All I have a 100 ns lipid simulation for which I want the density profile. I issued the following command g_density -f martin_md_290K_100ns_tau1.xtc -n dppc.ndx -s martin_md_290K_100ns_tau1.tpr -o water_density.xvg -b 50000 The program fails with the following message
