First, it would help a lot if you gave the actual error message (and how
you got there). Just writing "xleap said there's no parameters for my solvent
box" is not really specific enough. Also, giving the commands you actually
entered (rather than just "check its geometry") would also help.
Second, I'm guessing(?) that you did not re-load the frcmod.ccl4 file along
with the ccl4box.lib the final time you ran xleap (when you got the error).
Parameters are not stored inside .lib files--you need to load them every time
you run leap.
..hope this helps...dac
