Re: AMBER: Core Dump ERROR When Using TIP4P

I checked the topology file that I generated for TIP4P water using LEAP
and the one ($AMBERHOME/test/tip4p/prmtop) in the Amber distribution.
The difference between them is the mass of the "EP". In my topology
file, which derived from the "frcmod.tip4pew" file, the mass of "EP" is
zero.
But mass of "EP" in the "prmtop" file is 3.00. I changed the mass of
"EP" in the "frcmod.tip4pew" file and regenerated the topology, sander
seems to run fine!
 
My question is why the mass of water is 21 (2 for 2H + 16 for O and
3 for EP) instead of 18? If not, how can I deal with this problem?
Evidently, sander does not like zero mass regardless of the type.
 
Thanks,
