Dear Experts,

*I calculate the reference energy of model tyrosine (ACE-TYR-NME) using the
following command*:.

finddgref.py -mdexec $exe -i cp_ph7.in -o prod1.out -p
../min/TYR_model.prmtop -c ../nvt/nvtequi.ncrst -r prod1.ncrst -x prod1.nc
-cpin TYR.cpin -cpout prod1.cpout -cprestrt prod1.cpin

*After completion of run, it shows the following output message:*

 AMBER execution #10: running 1000000 MD steps of equilibration for
DELTAGREF = -65.060731 kcal/mol
 AMBER execution #10: running 10000000 MD steps of production for
DELTAGREF = -65.060731 kcal/mol
   The fraction of protonated species is 53.60% for the Residue 'TYR 2'
 AMBER execution #11: running 1000000 MD steps of equilibration for
DELTAGREF = -64.974735 kcal/mol
 AMBER execution #11: running 10000000 MD steps of production for
DELTAGREF = -64.974735 kcal/mol
   The fraction of protonated species is 52.40% for the Residue 'TYR 2'
 AMBER execution #12: running 1000000 MD steps of equilibration for
DELTAGREF = -64.917460 kcal/mol
 AMBER execution #12: running 10000000 MD steps of production for
DELTAGREF = -64.917460 kcal/mol
   The fraction of protonated species is 50.10% for the Residue 'TYR 2'

 *The value of DELTAGREF that gives a converged fraction of protonated
species for 10000000 MD steps and for solvent pH = 9.600 equals to 50.10%
is: DELTAGREF = -64.917460 kcal/mol*
* The execution of finddgref.py ended with success.*

*But when I performed the same task for TYR 5 in protein, i got an error
message.*

AMBER execution #10: running 1000000 MD steps of equilibration for
DELTAGREF = -51.998153 kcal/mol
 AMBER execution #10: running 10000000 MD steps of production for
DELTAGREF = -51.998153 kcal/mol
   The fraction of protonated species is 0.10% for the Residue 'TYR 5'
 AMBER execution #11: running 1000000 MD steps of equilibration for
DELTAGREF = -56.115669 kcal/mol
 AMBER execution #11: running 10000000 MD steps of production for
DELTAGREF = -56.115669 kcal/mol
   The fraction of protonated species is 100.00% for the Residue 'TYR 5'
