Dear Eduardo,
R.E.D. has detected a putative problem in the fitting step.
Consequently, the user is warned & the force field library is not
generated. This is indeed because you have all these 0.000000 values
in the "q(opt)" column.
I suspect a problem in the constraints you set up in the P2N input file.
Did you look at the examples of P2N file available from
http://q4md-forcefieldtools.org/Tutorial/ ?
For instance:
http://q4md-forcefieldtools.org/Tutorial/Tutorial-3.php#24
For the Central fragment:
http://q4md-forcefieldtools.org/Tutorial/P2N/All-frag-Pept/Mol_red1.p2n
For the dipeptide itself:
http://q4md-forcefieldtools.org/Tutorial/P2N/All-frag-Pept/Mol_red6.p2n
--
If this does not help:
This is difficult to understand the reason only from the RESP input
itself. May I ask you to send me your P2N input file & explain if you
want to derive the charges for the THR(-) dipeptide itself (i.e. the
whole molecule) or if you want to derive the charges for a THR(-)
fragment.
--
Finally, if you decide to use R.E.D. . Server
http://q4md-forcefieldtools.org/REDS/, you will be able to generate
the charges for the dipeptide molecule & the Central, N-terminal and
C-terminal residues in a single step. This is quite
simple/straighforward.
In your RESP input, you have a single conformation. You could also
imagine generating charges & FF library using various fitting
approaches based on different conformations as in the F-74 R.E.DD.B.
project.
See
http://q4md-forcefieldtools.org/REDDB/projects/F-74/.
There you will find 18 molecules involved in charge derivation where
various conformations are used and considered as different molecules.
Finally, pay attention to the conformation(s) you are going to select
as your dipeptide presents a negative charge...
