Hi Amber community,
I have followed suggestion given by Chris to check if there is something wrong about my protein file during minimization. But I found after 1300 cycles of minimization, the protein-ligand complex is fine and there is no problem with the structure.
Then I tried to use only steepest descent method (ntmin = 2) and found that the minimization with ntmin = 2 finishes without any error. But when I used the output file for further minimization with conjugate gradient method, I face same error once again.

************************************************
I am still confused, if this error is related to protein structure, related to mpi or related to sander.
I would appreciate if you could help me out.
Thanks and Regards
