Re: [AMBER] trajectory of minimization using generalized Born

Dear All,

I have installed AmberTools14 (and applied all updates and passed _all_
tests) in my home directory on this cluster and used its sander to run the
minimization using 16 processors and got again "ERROR IN SETPAR() upon atom
distribution"

Thus, as pointed out before, this error should be because the peptide is
very short and there is not enough workload to spread across 16 processors,
shouldn't it?

Thanks,
Edwin.
