[AMBER] Problem calculating energies using cpptraj and sander API

Hi there,

I’m having some trouble calculating the energy of a small molecule in the gas phase using cpptraj via the sander API (“esander” command).

The default behavior seems to add in the generalized Born term, so I tried adding “igb 0” to the “esander” command line. This leads to the following error message (below).

I checked the source code and the error seems to be in a function called check_prime_factors, which seems to be unrelated to what I’m trying to do. I understand I can use the “energy” command for my simple gas-phase system, but I’d rather it come from sander because that’s the “reference implementation” for lack of a better term.

Please let me know what you think.

Thanks,

- Lee-Ping
