Hi Colvin,
No this is nothing to worry about. I am not sure why ptraj is even looking
for that. The box dimensions should never be in the prmtop file (since they
change) and so I don't know why it would be looking for it. Certainly none
of AMBER's MD codes look for box dimension info in the prmtop - they only
look for if the prmtop represents a periodic system or not.
All the best
Ross
