Hi Hai,

I've seen this type of behavior when the mpirun command being used to run pmemd.MPI is different from the mpi installation that was used to build the executable.

I would check that which mpif90 matches which mpirun. I'd then try rebuilding from scratch with your current environment and see if the problem persists.

All the best
Ross
