Re: [AMBER] MMPBSA problems with Fe and Zn

There seems to be a problem with the inputs being given to the PB solver.
The PB solver was not able to properly run, which is why no PB mdout file
created. Since the run failed, all temporary files must have been kept. Did
you check the ptraj output files to make sure the program stripped out the
proper residues and recognized the correct files? Were *any* mdout files
created? What was printed in the logfile (or to the screen if ran
interactively). If you submitted the run to a queue, what was printed in the
.out and .err files? Are you just running PB, or GB also?
