Dear amberers,
I'm trying to run sander_classic on an explicity hydrated system
(lysozyme), but the process stops suddenly giving the error:

.....

 oct box min vector; 25.433 23.958
 vlimit exceeded for step 0; vmax = 1111.04407
 oct box min vector; nan nan
 oct box min vector; nan nan
 oct box min vector; nan nan
 oct box min vector; nan nan
 oct box min vector; nan nan
 oct box min vector; nan nan
 oct box min vector; nan nan

 Npairs =26786207 Exceeds Max= 9000000

I could not find how to increase the 9000000 limit for NPAIRS, I tried
to increase the integer memory fron 2000000 to 32000000, that in
sander_classic.f is described as dependent upon NPAIRS, but had no
succsess. Does anyone know if such limit can be overcome and how?

Thanks in advance, Andrea.


PS: the full output follow below
