Re: [AMBER] errors in total energy

your vdw energies are off scale, and the bond energies are also very high
(the water will not have bond energies, so this indicates something in the
solute has gone wrong).
in my experience, nearly every problem people report with instability for a
complex ends up being related to the ligand parameters. I suggest running
the same simulation with just your protein in water and see if you get the
same problem or not. If not, then carefully examine how you obtained your
inhibitor force field. If you do have troubles, check your relaxation
protocol and the source of the initial coordinates.
