​I'm a little confused as to what's happening here. Also, since you don't
give exact input and output, I have to guess what happened (which may or
may not be accurate). Two things come to mind:

1.

mpirun -np 2 sander -ng 2 -groupfile ...

The problem with the above is it needs to be sander.MPI, not sander.

2.

mpirun -np 2 sander.MPI -ng 2 -groupfile ...

In this case, the "mpirun" being used is from a different MPI than the
mpif90/mpicc that were used to build parallel Amber. You need to make sure
that the same MPI is used throughout.

If neither of those apply, you will need to be more specific with your
problems (descriptions are rarely specific enough unless accompanied by
exact input/output).

HTH,
Jason
