Re: [AMBER] minimization error : segmentation fault (AMBER Digest, Vol 1483, Issue 1)

From: Bill Ross <ross.cgl.ucsf.edu>
Date: Thu, 11 Feb 2016 21:19:43 -0800

Note that the atom with the GMAX is HH22, number 8003 for a few steps,
then it switches to NE 7995 before the crash. I would look for steric
clashes in the neighborhood of those 2 atoms.
