Hi Juan,
Looks like you only built the serial version of PMEMD.
It would help to see the beginning of your input file, the section from the
beginning to section 4. I bet there is no MPI in there.
Recompile PMEMD in parallel and try again.
Note, from AMBER 11 parallel PMEMD will be renamed pmemd.MPI (the serial
being called pmemd) to avoid such confusion.
All the best
Ross
