Hi Dan,
1) The version of ptraj used is the one that comes with AMBER 10.
2) AMBER bugfixes 1-8 and AmberTools bugfixes 1-3 were applied (I'm using
AMBER and AmberTools on a cluster, and I wasn't the one that installed and
compiled them).
3) distances.ptraj and dihedrals.ptraj are the two ptraj scripts that I'm
having trouble with. Initially, they used to be one script. They're broken
into two because I thought that maybe putting all these commands into one
script caused the seg fault, but the scripts still aren't working.
4) distances.out and dihedrals.out are the two outputs from ptraj. ptraj
seems to crash right after the "checking coordinates" step or the
"processing coordinates" step.
5) I've been applying these ptraj scripts to a number of systems: a
wild-type 85-nt RNA system charge-neutralized with either Na+ or a
combination of Na+/Mg2+ and then mutants on this wild type structure, in
which one base pair is mutated from the wild-type. The mutant base pairs are
charge-neutralized with Na+, and the ptraj scripts have worked for them.
It's only when I apply the scripts to the wild-type systems that ptraj
crashes. These mutants systems have between 60,000 and 70,000 atoms with
ions and waters added. The wild type systems have between 58,000 and 60,000
atoms. All systems are periodic, use explicit TIP3P water, and each traj
file has 100 ps in it (= 100 frames). Please let me know if you need me to
provide any other information.
Thank you so much, and have a great day,
Kamali Sripathi
