Re: [gmx-users] Segmentation fault with gromacs 3.3.3

2008-06-28 Thread Cesar Avila
It seems to be a problem related to the debian package. I have compiled
gromacs 3.3.3 from source with gcc-4.3 and apparently the problem has
dissapeared. Perhaps, the binaries on the debian package were compiled
with gcc-4.1.

[gmx-users] Segmentation fault with gromacs 3.3.3

2008-06-28 Thread Cesar Avila
Dear all,
I am new to the gromacs simulation package. Thus far I have been using
Charmm and NAMD, but now I am interested on testing Marrink's
Coarse-Grained Martini FF. I managed to setup an initial configuration for
a protein in a water box. After a few minimization steps, I ran the
simulation for about 10 ns until it crashed with a Segmentation fault
message.
Using tpbconv, I resumed the simulation from 10200 ps step. Nevertheless I
systematically found a segmentation fault  error on step 6530. Using mdrun
-nocompact gives no additional information about the crash. When I use
mdrun -debug the simulation is able to run without any problem (until I
run out of disk space).
I found the same error to occur on both a Pentium IV (debian etch) and an
Intel Core 2 Duo (Debian lenny). Both systems
are running gromacs 3.3.3 from Debian testing packages. If anyone is
interested on reproducing the error on their own computer, I can send them
the tpr file (476K compressed).
Best regards

[gmx-users] Uncharged Lysine Charges on Hydrogens from NH2 group 0.36??

2008-06-28 Thread Joseph Schwartz
I was wondering why the Hydrogens from the non N-terminus NH2 group in the 
uncharged Lysine molecule had charges of 0.36 as specified by gromacs(H1 and 
H2) when the Jorgensen published value for H's in RCH2NH2 was 0.35.  All of the 
other charges in this molecule I have found in publications except for those.  
The overall charge of the molecule is 0.02 and if the H's were changed to 0.35 
it would make the overall molecule uncharged.  Would this alteration be valid?

This is part of the topol.top file.

Re: [gmx-users] High number of steps are adding

2008-06-28 Thread Tsjerk Wassenaar
Hi Sudheer,

I would say you just try to add a nanosecond to a run which still has
ten to go (10+1=11). That also tells me you're not trying to extend a
run already performed (properly), as it has a starting step of 0
(starting time 0.000). Then on another note, it seems that you didn't
copy-paste your command line, as it is not very common to call the
files .trr .tpr and .edr. Assuming you did properly feed a trajectory
file, it must have been empty except for the starting frame. But we
would only be able to tell for sure if you would have given the output
of the command, rather than the few lines you think are most
significant. Anyway, you can probably read the output again for
yourself to see if this reply already describes your situation.

Cheers,

Tsjerk

Re: [gmx-users] Magic number error

2008-06-28 Thread Tsjerk Wassenaar
Hi Minnale,

You could try another version as was suggested... Never hurts to try.
The magic number error occurs if the file is screwed. trjconv will
correctly process the trajectory up to the point where the magic
number error occurs, so you can restart from the last good entry in
the file. Out of luck when the whole trajectory is bad. However, you
didn't say what you did with the .tpr files for the separate runs, and
with the individual trajectory (.xtc) files. If you still have these
you can restart from there.

Cheers,

Tsjerk

Re: [gmx-users] Protein is moving out of box.

2008-06-28 Thread Tsjerk Wassenaar
Hi,

Well, I think it should also be incorporated into (Gromacs) MD
tutorial material. It's on my to do list. I don't think there's much
use in adding a message in the mdrun output (might as well always add
it, not even checking for jumps). It's basic PBC, which, with a bit of
thinking, can be understood/deduced from what's in the manual and on
the wiki. If people don't read that (anybody who does read that will
be excluded from the set of people hereafter referred to by "they"), I
assume they don't read the log file either. They'll simply run the
simulation and if they have a trajectory, will do analysis (visual
inspection) and run into this "problem". If they don't have a
trajectory, we'll probably get a question about step files, ci-values
or something along those lines.

That may be a bit pessimistic, but on the other hand, let's not forget
that there are many students/researchers getting involved in Gromacs
every week and many of them do know how to search archives/wiki and
read a manual. Also, there's a lot of (new) people asking sensible
questions on this list, making it worthwhile to keep answering posts.
And, to be honest, it does sometimes feel good to shout 'RTFM!'
(RTFML, RTFW) when somebody's not doing his homework :p

Hi William,

I'm not very sure you can simulate crystallization of salt with
classical MD. In any case, the force field is not parameterized to
reproduce crystallization or melting c.q. the melted state of NaCl.
It's therefore unlikely that it will produce meaningful results. The
best approach :) would be to determine parameters for Na/Cl for this
purpose.

Hmm. The newest gcc for Fedora 7 is gcc 4.1.2-27. RHEL 5.0 had gcc
4.1.1-52 and 5.1 had 4.1.2-14.

I've been using Gromacs in CentOS 5 (an RHEL 5 clone) without any
problems using the default compiler and system libraries openmpi, fftw3
and so on.

Try just with ./configure . If it doesn't work, then you might consider
updating your OS to a supported version.
