Dear Bagheri,
> I have many question about RED program and RED server,
If your questions are general please send them in the Amber of
q4md-forcefieldtools mailing lists, so that everybody can answer/read.

If you want to model subtilisin with Ca++ ion(s), you do not need to
compute charges for your system. You only need to pick a set of
initial Cartesian coordinates for this protein (from the protein data
bank for instance) and choose a force field in the LEaP program. You
might have to perform some editing for this PDB structure (check the
atom & residue names to see if they 100 % match these available in the
force field you are going to select: parm99SB or ff03, I guess).

Yes, it seems we have a problem/bug here in R.E.D. Server... Thanks,
for reporting this problem. In this case, go directly to your Download
space/page to see if your project is available.

- R.E.D.-III is an interface to Gaussian/GAMESS-US/PC-GAMESS and RESP.
You download R.E.D.-III, and use it on your machine(s). This means you
need to install Gaussian, GAMESS-US or PC-GAMESS and RESP on your
machine(s) to have a working system.
- R.E.D. Server provides the last version of the R.E.D. program
(R.E.D. IV beta June 2009, so far) + Gaussian/GAMESS-US/PC-GAMESS and
RESP + a cluster to run charge derivation for new molecules and
molecular fragments.
---
When using R.E.D. & you get "the optimizaton output can not be found":
For each P2N file used as input in R.E.D.-III.x/R.E.D.-IV, you need to
provide a log file (QM output from Gaussian, GAMESS-US or PC-GAMESS).
Did you try the test cases in the R.E.D.-III.2 tools distribution ?
See also http://q4md-forcefieldtools.org/REDS/popup/popmodes.php
- When $OPT_Calc = "On" & $MEP_Calc = "On" in R.E.D.-III.x/R.E.D.-IV
(this correspond to the mode 1 in R.E.D. Server) you only need to
provide P2N file(s).
- When $OPT_Calc = "On" & $MEP_Calc = "Off" in R.E.D.-III.x/R.E.D.-IV
(this correspond to the mode 2 in R.E.D. Server) you need to provide
P2N and log files.
For instance, if you want to perform a 2 molecule charge derivation,
you need to provide the 4 following files if $OPT_Calc = "On" &
$MEP_Calc = "Off":
Mol_red1.p2n
Mol_red1.log
Mol_red2.p2n
Mol_red2.log
On the contrary if $OPT_Calc = "On" & $MEP_Calc = "On", you only need
to provide:
Mol_red1.p2n
Mol_red2.p2n
