Thanks Dr. Case,
Turning off 'fast SHAKE' stopped the error. I will try the MD part with
1fs timestep.
So I am guessing for SPCFW

- WAT = SPF

- set WAT.1 name 'SPF'

doesn't do anything because I don't see a change in my prmtop file.



But I think the SPCFW water is used since there is no complaint from these
commands.

- loadAmberParams frcmod.spcfw
- set default FlexibleWater on
