Re: [AMBER] error on running sander.MPI

Hello George,

Just to confirm this is a sander.MPI issue, perhaps you can try running the
above input file with pmemd? It recognizes all of the options except
restraintmask, which has to be recast as a group format input. The below
input file will have exactly the same result, but will run with either
sander.MPI or pmemd. (Even if it does turn out that only sander.MPI has an
issue with it, you can still use pmemd).

Does it work with mpirun -np 12 pmemd.MPI ?

Good luck!
