Dear Amber Experts,

I have have been using AMBER10 for my simulation. For the equilibrium process I use sander.MPI and for the production process I tried to use PMEMD. What is happening is the simulation terminates immediately upon submitted. The message in the output file is as below:

Could anyone help me indicate why this happens when using pmemd?

Thank you.
