Dear Gustavo Seabra, Thanks for your replying.
  - My operate system is Ubuntu 10.10.
  -The parameters I use are from the dftb official website is 3ob (DFTB3 files for bio and organic molecules).
  - I have update the ambertools15 and recompile it followed the manual, and errors only happened in the qmmm_DFTB directory.
     -----------------------------------------------test errors------------------------------------------
     cd qmmm_DFTB/tip3p_cap_DFTB && ./Run.tip3p_cap_md.shake_qmshakeoff
    diffing tip3p_cap_md_shake_qmshake_off.out.save with tip3p_cap_md_shake_qmshake_off.out
    possible FAILURE: check tip3p_cap_md_shake_qmshake_off.out.dif

    cd qmmm_DFTB/1NLN_periodic_lnk_atoms_DFTB && ./Run.1NLN_min
    make[3]: [test.sander.DFTB] Error 1 (ignored)
    cd qmmm_DFTB/1NLN_periodic_lnk_atoms_DFTB && ./Run.1NLN_MD_ntb1
    -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  - The test have failed, but some of the tests can run but the output differs from the original output of the software (eg. $AMBERHOME/test/qmmm_DFTB/tip3p_cap_DFTB/Run.tip3p_cap_md).
  - I test some other tests as follows:
  (1). $AMBERHOME/test/qmmm_DFTB/aladip_tip3p_ewaldpme/Run.aladip_ewald_ntb1 & Run.aladip_ewald_ntb2 (PASSED) get same output file
  (2). $AMBERHOME/test/qmmm_DFTB/MG_QM_water_MM_DFTB_periodic/Run.notimaged_md_pme_qmewald (PASSED) get same output file
  (3). $AMBERHOME/test/qmmm_DFTB/1NLN_periodic_lnk_atoms_DFTB directory/Run.1NLN_MD_ntb1_aq1(FAILED)

What's the matter with my ambertools? Looking forward your suggestions!


Best wishes,

I used the input file "Run.1NLN_MD_ntb1_aq1" in "$AMBERHOME/test/qmmm_DFTB/1NLN_periodic_lnk_atoms_DFTB directory" and corresponding prmtop and restart files. Isubmit the simulation, and errors occured at the first optmize step ehich as foollows.
