Hi Justin,

I think it is the minimization issue. I did steep for 2000 steps, and it works thereafter for the mdrun, for this structure.
Thank you very much!

Regards,
Stone Gao

Hi,
I run a two-molecule system with mdrun_d in a water box (~10000 water molecules.)
The program looks running properly (no errors nor warnnings)
However the program seems stop outputting files (because the output file size stop increases) after about 5min. The mdrun_d interface looks normal without any errors, the md.log contains only two saves:

I'd say the system is exploding. Your temperature is oscillating between 1000 K and 893 K using a Nose-Hoover thermostat, and your potential starts off in excess of 10^4 kJ mol^-1. Did you run any sort of energy minimization or weak-coupling equilibration before this run?

It's odd that mdrun wouldn't give some sort of LINCS warning or write out step*.pdb files right beforehand, though.
