Hi Jason,
I ran MMPBSA.py.MPI successfully by copying "sander" from /home/Amber/amber11/bin to /home/Amber/amber12/bin, so that
MMPBSA could find sander. I can not be sure whether this is proper.
However, the output file FINAL_DECOMP_MMPBSA.dat became a mess which confused me.
 
Here is my input file, and I will attach FINAL_DECOMP_MMPBSA.dat in the email.
Per-residue GB and PB decomposition
&general
   startframe=201, verbose=1,
   strip_mask=":WAT:Cl-:CIO:Cs+:IB:K+:Li+:Na+:Rb+"
/
&gb
  igb=5, saltcon=0.100,
/
&pb
  istrng=0.100,
/
&decomp
  idecomp=1,
  dec_verbose=1,
/
 
I tried to set dec_verbose=3 and run the job again with -rewrite-output, but the program aborted with the following error:
KeyError: 'rismrun_std'
 
I compiled the serial vesion of AmberTools 12 with -nofftw3. Will this be the case?
Thanks.
