Hi Justin,

Thanks for the reply.

Once again i tried to minimize the protein +ligand in vacuum. Also tried by varying the maximum force constant. But that too converged at the 15 th step (or lesser steps based on the Fmax). The em.mdp file i have attached here with. Please go through that once please and tell me because of any of these parameters, the system behaves odd??.


As I said before, it is not the step that matters, it is whether or not the
system converges within your criteria.  I am assuming EM is working, based on
the fact that the process converges differently depending on different target
values for Fmax.  Your .mdp file looks reasonable.

If we can clarify for a moment - several messages ago you claimed that you were doing a 20-ps NVT equilibration that was finishing at 15 steps, but that appears to not be the case. Is it the NVT step that is failing to complete? Is ngmx failing to display the NVT trajectory, and did gmxcheck report problems with the .edr file?

I think you are correct that the itp file created by PRODRG need corrections.
But how can I chek that is that the problem with that file or how can i rectify?


Parameterization is very difficult. Prepare for a lot of advanced work. Please see here:

Hi Justin,

I tried maximum to find out the problem but i failed in that.

I will give you the detailed steps..Kindly check once and tell me where is the problem. As you suggested now i am trying in gromacs 4.0.4 . 1. The ligand topology file is generated in PRODRG beta server using the GROMOS 96.1 force field. 2. The protein toplogy file using gromos 96 43 a1 force field 3. Tried to minimize in vacuum (Please find the em.mdp file). But the
 cycle finished at 15 steps. But in some previous post I saw that its not
an error so I went ahead with genbox and further minimization. But ended in
the same 15 th steps. also checked the gmxcheck for the files as you suggested it show the following error.


What is most important is not the number of steps necessarily, but that the potential energy converged to an appropriate value and you reached an Fmax below your target.

Realize that using a topology straight from PRODRG is often not the best course. The charges and charge groups assigned by PRODRG often require manual modification and verification of the parameters. This could be a source of problem.

It may be that there is some kind of bug, but before that can be proposed, you have to demonstrate that the preparation steps were successful (i.e., EM criteria of potential energy and Fmax).

Thank you very much for the reply...

gmxcheck of my out shows a "segementation fault" in the last part. What could be the problem??

this is the last part of the output

The energy minimisation & the equilibration steps are finished at 15 step
 eventhough it was given for 20 ps(10000 steps).But the output
coordinates file doesnt show any abnornmality as i checked in the viewer?
My equilibration step was in NVT.

whether nothing is happening or any other problem?

If you got 15 steps when you expected 10000, it seems pretty clear to me that something crashed very early on in your simulation.

Hi,

after equlibration of my protein and ligand I tried to create the energy file ans well as the to display the trajectories using ngmx option,. But it shows the follo: error,

Xlib: connection to ":0.0" refused by server Xlib: No protocol specified


Can't connect to X Server. Check your DISPLAY environment variable


Seems like your X environment is somehow not properly configured.


If you are working through ssh, then you can :

$export DISPLAY=<your current computer's ip>:0.0



Or you are tunneling through a SSH connection. There are several possiblities:

1. Try ssh -X to login, this could solve the problem, if you are in principle allowed to use X11 tunneling. 2. In case this does not work either it can be that you are not allowed to tunnel X11.

However take care that you also need a properly configured XServer running on your own system not just on the host you login. So in case you
 use Windows or MacOS make sure this is the case.

also the g_energy command shows that ,

Program g_energy_mpi, VERSION 3.3.3 Source code file: enxio.c, line: 239


Fatal error: Energy file eq_2ps_ener.edr not recognized, maybe different CPU?


What does gmxcheck tell you about the file. Perhaps it has been corrupted
 in some way.

Also, you may want to work with a more current version (4.0.5) to utilize
 the newest features and bug fixes.

Can any one help me, please???
