Hi,
Using Amber 7 I was trying to go through the minimisation of a
small molecule as an introduction to working out how antechamber, leap
and sander work. When I went to run a sander job using the prmtop and
prmcrd files generated by leap from an antechamber generated file an
error appeared on the command line:-
bad atom type : ca
This occurred using the prmtop & prmcrd files generated in the
antechamber test suite for the molecule sustiva. The sander job is, I
think, a simple minimisation and is as below :-
# Minimise cmpd1 with GB approx.
&cntrl
maxcyc=500, imin=1, cut=25.0, igb=1, ntb=0, ntpr=10, gbsa=1,
&end
There are no errors reported in the mdout file. Looking at the prmtop
file the only place I can see any reference to "ca" is the following :-
%FLAG AMBER_ATOM_TYPE
%FORMAT(20a4)
ca ca ha ca cl ca ha ca ha ca n hn c o os c3 c3 f
f f
c1 c1 c3 hc c3 hc hc c3 hc hc
So, it looks like sander is not recognising the lower case atom types as
generated by antechamber.
Can anyone tell me what I have done wrong in setting up and running this
simple minimisation ?
Bye Jeff.
