Above is a bit unclear: are you trying to run several pmemd jobs in one big
script? That is, is the "Error on OPEN" message coming from a later step,
and just reflecting the fact that the earlier error prevented a file from
being written?

"illegal memory access" doesn't really say much. Have you examined the
mdout file from the job where you got this message? Did the error happen on
the first step, or further on into the job? Running short simulations with
ntpr=1 is often a good way to find problems. Also, try running the
simulation on a CPU: one often gets better error messages from the CPU
version than from the GPU.
