Hi Oliver,

see my in-line comments.

Don't include the DIME parameter unless this is really what you want. iAPBS
should automatically figure out the optimal grid for the given SCALE
parameter.

Don't include the following four parameters, they are not used by iAPBS. The
surface tension for the non-polar contribution is the GAMMA parameter (in
kJ/mol/A^2).

Other than that it looks OK. Can you please rerun your calculation and let
me know if you still having problems.

All the best,

Robert
