Hello Carlos,

Again I did the centering as well as imaging using ptraj command :
*center:1-368
image center familiar*
and even visualized the trajectory ...everything seems perfect...and solvent
is not moving far from the central box.

I again ran the minimization using Amner10...nd got the same output pasted
earlier..
This time also tried with Amber11 and prepared the min.in file based on
trajene.in (amber11/test/trajene_box/). Here the things are running fine.
Below is the min.in file
&cntrl
   imin = 5, ntx = 1,
   ntt = 1, tautp = 1.0, temp0 = 300.0, tempi = 300.0,
   ntc = 2, ntf = 1, ntb = 2,
   ntp = 1, taup = 1.0,
   ntwx = 1, ntwe = 0, ntwr = 1, ntpr = 1, ioutfm = 0,
   cut = 12.0, iwrap = 1,
  /
As Amber11 is supporting the PBC condition , will it be ok if I use Amber11
for minimizing the trajectory and further use it for normal mode calculation
using Amber10?
Guide me if I am doing anything wrong.

Many thanks.
