Hi,
Thanks very much for your suggestions last time. Now that problem has been solved. Many thanks.
At present, I have a new question emerging on my test of running minimization using a restraint file. The restraint file is regarded to four distance restraints between some atoms. After every minimization, I observed the results in the VMD, checking the four distances defined in the restraint file. In the step three of minimization, the four distances group in the restraint file, however, turned to be above the defined upper distance, which should not happen in this situation. On the other hand, in the MD step, by observing another test, I find that the distances group in the restraint file are strongly met with distance range, neither below the lower distance nor above the upper distance. So, I wonder that, whether the restraint file is not effective in the minimization. Thank you!
