Hi;

   Yes, this worked. Thanks!

Hi,

One issue with LMOD that sometimes pops up is atomic overlap of atoms
with zero VDW parameters (e.g. HO, HW, ho) during local minimization.
If your topology file is named prmtop.in you can run the program
'lmodprmtop prmtop.in prmtop.out' to get a topology file (prmtop.out)
which creates small VDW barriers for these atoms to prevent overlap.
Try this, run the calc with the modified topology file and see if the
problem still occurs. See the end of the LMOD section in the manual
for some more details on this.
