Re: [AMBER] Distance restraint not working

I tried Stephen's suggestion. Removing the comment and setting "nmropt = 1"
outputs a new error -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   3. ATOMIC COORDINATES AND VELOCITIES
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

ACE

 begin time read from input coords = 20.000 ps



           Begin reading energy term weight changes/NMR restraints
 WEIGHT CHANGES:
 ERROR: No "wt" namelist with TYPE=END found

I did not know distance restraint is a NMR restraint and requires
nmropt setting.

Simon
