Dear Team,
I am performing MMGBSA calculations on a protein–siRNA complex and
encountering an error. Below are the details:
*System and files:*
-
*Complex topology (complex_wt_nosolvent.parm7):* 8691 atoms, 502
residues, 3 molecules
-
*Protein topology (protein_wt.parm7):* 7352 atoms, 460 residues, 1
molecule
-
*siRNA topology (sirna_wt.parm7):* 1339 atoms, 42 residues, 2 molecules
-
*Trajectory (traj.mdcrd):* 8691 atoms, 502 residues, 3 molecules;
stripped of water and ions
*MMGBSA input:*
&general
startframe=1
endframe=5000
interval=5
verbose=2
keep_files=0
/
&gb
igb=5
saltcon=0.150
radiopt=0

*Observed error:*

Fatal Error!
All files have been retained for your error investigation:
You should begin by examining the output files of the first failed
calculation.
Consult the "Temporary Files" subsection of the MMPBSA.py chapter in the
manual for file naming conventions.
Could anyone please advise on what might be causing this failure, or
suggest steps to resolve it?
Thank You
With regards
