Re: [AMBER] NETCDF problem

Dear David,
Thanks for confirming my believes regarding the use of the NETCDF-files.
I've carefully checked my job-file and the -O flag is always present before each run.
Moreover, the simulation actually starts and runs for many nanoseconds before the error message pops up (how many nanoseconds vary from simulation to simulation basd on the use of ig=-1) so based on this I wouldn't be related to the use of the -O flag right?

With kind regards, Björn

    Your understanding of netcdf format is correct. However, the above message
    looks like it is happening when write_nc_restart is called, i.e. when you
    are trying to output a new netcdf restart file at the end of your new run.

    Check your file names carefully. Unless you set the "-O" flag, amber will
    not overwrite an existing file, which could lead to the above error if the
    requested restart file already exists. But it could be some other
    permissions problem as well.
