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

From: Bill Ross <ross.cgl.ucsf.edu>

Dear Salman,

The crash suggests an amber14 bug in any case, possibly the sort that
can be worked around with better coordinates, but maybe something for
the developers to reproduce and study, since it is occurring when
nonbonded lists are being adjusted, probably due to an index error. I
don't think it's a problem with the files if the same ones worked with
amber12.

Before running minimization, I checked my structure using cpptraj checkoverlap command to see if atoms are close to other atoms. I have found that protein contain some bad contact because leap added missing atoms then I started running minimization. I got the following error message.

The test suite is really designed as regression tests for those modifying the code etc while what an end user test cases need to be is one that just checks the compilation worked and tests a reasonable range of options to look for obvious compiler bugs etc. Unfortunately nobody has volunteered yet to split the testing in this way so users run the very long and complicated regression test which can lead to confusion.

I have been told that in order for this to work properly, the simulation needs to be of at least a certain length. I've also been told that this issue had been discussed on the mailing list before, but I have failed to find relevant information, just hints, and the tutorials are rather vague on the subject. Where can I find exact information on how quasi-harmonic calculations ought to be run?
