Re: [AMBER] Problem with input coordinates file

Hi, thanks for the fast reply. I cannot find any error in leap.log file,
just some warnings about close contacts of atoms(that is normal, I found
the same warnings in the other complexes). The inpcrd files for the complex
and the molecule are not blank, they just don't work without showing any
error in tleap. The fact that there are no errors displayed in the log file
but the file is not useful for simulations sounds to me very weird, as the
prmtop file contains also the informations about the small molecule; I
cannot find any reason for that. I'm actually trying to rebuild the
molecule from the beginning and re dock it, then I will try to simulate
again the complex.
