Hi,

I am trying to run a Metadynamic simulation of the spike protein through
PLUMED 2.10.0 - AMBER24 after equilibration. I generated a pdb file from
the last .rst7 file using cpptraj:


cpptraj -p step3_input.parm7 << 'EOF'

trajin prod.rst7

autoimage

strip !.1-62706

trajout molinfo_trimer.pdb pdb

EOF


A few lines from molinfo_trimer.pdb:


CRYST1 200.369 200.369 200.369 109.47 109.47 109.47 1

ATOM 1 N MET 1 130.602 81.228 105.504 1.00 0.00
  N

ATOM 2 H1 MET 1 130.656 80.281 105.850 1.00 0.00
  H

ATOM 3 H2 MET 1 129.669 81.519 105.248 1.00 0.00
  H


When I am running my bash script:


module purge

module load CUDA/12.8

module load AMBER/24-MPI_GPU-plumed

amber="pmemd"


${amber} -O -i metad_prod.in -p step3_input.parm7 -c prod.rst7 -o
metad_prod.out -r metad_prod.rst7 -x metad_prod.nc


Its giving bellow error:


PLUMED: Please read and cite where appropriate!
PLUMED: Finished setup
 !!!!! PLUMED ERROR: Only orthorhombic and truncted octahedron cells are
supported in this release.
 !!!!! ABORTING RUN



Though my system has a truncated octahedron box.


Can anyone suggest what is going on? I have attached my plumed file.



Thanks
