Re: [AMBER] igb=7 & 8 CalcError: "pathway" failed with prmtop "protein".prmtop

Note, igb=7 and igb=8 are different GB models that require different radius
sets than other GB models. For instance, if you run with igb=7 in the
first MMPBSA.py test, you'll get an error like:

 Atom 40 has radius 0.800000000000000 outside of allowed
rang
 e
 of 1.0 to 2.0 angstroms for igb=7. Regenerate prmtop file with bondi radii.

igb=7 requires the 'bondi' radii and igb=8 requires 'mbondi3'. Unlike
other GB models, not adhering to certain criteria will cause fatal errors
(because the look-up tables used for the GB 'neck' contribution to the
effective radii impose an upper- and lower- limit on the allowable
intrinsic radii).

Look for one of these errors in the _MMPBSA_*_gb.mdout.* files. If this is
the case, you will need to regenerate your topology files with the correct
radii.

You can do this either using tleap to recreate all of your topology files,
or you can use ParmEd (xparmed.py or parmed.py) to write a new topology
file directly with the new radii.

HTH,
Jason

P.S., in some instances using other protein force fields, like ff99SBildn,
will result in the same error for igb=8 even when you use mbondi3. In this
case, you need to use ParmEd to change the radii of all C2 (or C3) atoms
from 2.2 to 1.7. So a command like this:

change RADII .%C2,C3 1.7

will do the trick.
