Hi Justin, I used 15 nm cubic box and 6 nm shell. I again tried to insert only 1 histidine molecule in the sphere. I get the same error
Fatal error: One of the box vectors has become shorter than twice the cut-off length or box_yy-|box_zy| or box_zz has become smaller than the cut-off. On Sun, May 8, 2011 at 9:53 PM, Justin A.
