I am not quite sure I understood what the -refc input should look like from
the manual but here is what I tried. I created a file with the coordinates
of the atoms (15 atoms) on residue #16 (this molecule is centered in the
box)

 

   1.1615000 -0.7975000 1.4650000

   0.7655000 -0.1365000 0.1570000

  -0.6935000 -0.1305000 -0.0820000

  -1.0095000 0.2495000 -1.5080000

  -0.5605000 1.5435000 -1.6610000

   0.3385000 1.5005000 -1.9950000

   1.3485000 -0.0155000 2.2020000

   0.4545000 -1.5435000 1.8290000

   2.0865000 -1.3615000 1.3510000

   1.2125000 -0.5805000 -0.7330000

   1.2355000 0.8425000 0.2530000

  -1.1175000 0.5975000 0.6100000

  -1.1825000 -1.1015000 -0.0000000

  -0.4635000 -0.3905000 -2.2020000

  -2.0865000 0.2365000 -1.6730000

 

 

Then I saved this and ran: sander -O -i qmtry.in -o qmtry.out -c c16.inpcrd
-p simbox.prmtop -ref c16.refc

 

This didn't change anything. I got the same output as before.

 

Also, just in case this is useful to anyone, I used a different software to
visualize the box and extract the residues that are within 3 A of residue
16. When I put the residue names in the qmmask instead of using a
distance-based criteria, sander was able to run successfully. This confirms
that the ambmask is what is causing the problem and not the actual box being
too small or the qm region being too large.

 

Thanks,

Aseel

Shot in the dark: maybe because this is a distance-based mask you need
reference coordinates (-refc)?
