Dear admins,
I am running a QM/MM simulation interfacing AMBER to ORCA. My system is
composed by a molecule, treated at QM level and surrounded by Li+ atoms,
which I wish to treat at MM level.
The problem is that SANDER keeps saying me that
adjust_q=2 requires natom-(nquant+nlink)>=1 .
1. I did not specify to include link atoms, cause I don't know how to do
it.

2. This is must be because the charge in file.prmtop is 24- but I used
"qmcharge=0" ( because I want ORCA to run a a calculation on a neutral
system).
3. In fact, in creating the file.prmtop for my molecule I used the Mulliken
charges from an ORCA calculation, and the total molecule charge is 3- .
But, I want to surround it by 27 Li+ , and for this reason the total charge
will obviously be 24-.
The thing is that I can't get the Mulliken charge from ORCA for my
molecule, because the molecule 27- doesn't converge, reason why I am trying
a QM/MM run to distribute the Li around.
Do you have any idea about how this problem can be fixed ?
Best Regards,
Emanuele
