Good morning Amber users!!
I am running a minimisation of a org. solvent box (bromobenzene),
the box is 40x40x40, a small one.
After the minimisation and the equilibrium, the energies (ETOT, EPTOT and EKTOT ),
are positive, which should not be possible. I do not think that the problem is on the minimisation,
so I assume that it should be on the NPT script.
This is the script for the minimisation
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
minimisation
&cntrl
imin = 1, maxcyc = 80000, ntmin = 1,
ntx = 1,
ncyc = 25000,
ntb = 1, ntp = 0,
cut = 12.0
/
----------------
The last part of the output is something like this
--------------->>>>

80000 1.9963E+04 9.5323E-03 4.1860E-01 H7 20803

I read big part of the manual, -Sander- so most of the commands come from there and
the suggestions into it.
I started a new simulation few minutes ago, so I am attaching the NPT so far !!
As you can see, the energies are positive.
I would appreciate any advise. Thanks before hand.
