Re: [AMBER] Problem with link atom in QM/MM

Hi Lee,

Please double check the bonds you expect to be breaking between the QM and
MM region and make sure that you are not breaking 2 bonds to the same atom.
Each QM atom can only have one link atom. I suggest drawing a 2D diagram of
the QM and nearby MM region so you can be sure which bonds you expect to be
broken. Posting this to the AMBER list would be helpful in debugging your
problem.

All the best
Ross
