Hello, just reawakening this thread because I find that I have difficulties
setting up SPCFW also.

My leap input looks like this:

source leaprc.ff99brc0

##SPCFW commands:
loadAmberParams frcmod.spcfw
set default FlexibleWater on

nuc = loadpdb gc12mer_Z.pdb
addions nuc Na+ 22
solvatebox nuc SPCBOX 20
saveamberparm nuc gc12_Z.top gc12_Z.crd

and my leap output looks all fine apart from some warnings at the end:
.
.
.
Loading library: /usr/local/amber11//dat/leap/lib/solvents.lib
.
.
.

Checking Unit.

etc etc etc one warning per water molecule. Does this mean that I have
somehow picked up both triangular-bond (rigid model) and angle (flexible
model) terms?

Before anyone tells me that I should have used "SPCFBOX" instead of "SPCBOX"
(as suggested in the amberTools v1.4 manual, 2.10 "Solvent Models")... this
just gets an error message from leap, even though "solvents.lib" is loaded;
eg:

>solvatebox nuc SPCFBOX 25
solvateBox: Argument #1 is type String must be of type: [unit]
usage: solvateBox <solute> <solvent> <buffer> [iso] [closeness]

I is the confusingeds about this, I'm not even sure I need flexible water
anymore but surely there has to be a way....
