Re: [AMBER] Amber Error

It might be best if you copy/paste your input and the result, but I
think I can guess that your PDB has atom names that don't agree with the
force field, and that if you look closely at your output you will see
these atoms being added to the existing template.

If so, there are two solutions: atom name mapping, and adjusting the
names in your PDB to match.

One dumb but effective way to see what names are expected is to generate
an arbitrary pdb by using leap's sequence command with the residues of
interest, then savepdb and have a look. Or you can e.g. 'desc DT5' to
see the atom names listed, I believe.

If this doesn't apply, input/output, please.
