First, make sure you are using AmberTools 13. You can upgrade in-place
using the command:

cd $AMBERHOME
./update_amber --upgrade
./update_amber --update
./configure -cuda gnu
make install

That said, if the error is _still_ occurring, the first step in
debugging pmemd.cuda issues is _always_ to try your simulation with the
CPU versions of pmemd and see if it works there. If it does not work
with the CPU version, then there is likely something wrong with your
system and the error messages from pmemd or pmemd.MPI are often a bit
more helpful than the corresponding messages from pmemd.cuda.

HTH,
