This is an unusual failure- I wonder if there are any messages in the
syslog on the NMRbox server where you're running Xplor-NIH. Do you get
the same behavior with a different NMRbox server?

You can modify your script a bit to do only the final analysis on the
structures you do calculate. For this, copy fold_TAR.py to analyze.py
and edit this file in the following fashion:

  - remove the fixupCovalentGeom line
  - edit the calcOneStructure function so that its body is empty (it
    shouldn't do anything).
  - to StructureLoop, remove the numStructures argument, and add this
    argument:
       pdbFilesIn="fold_Tar_*.pdb",
    

I'm happy to help further, and I would like to fix the root cause, but
it will probably take working with the NMRbox team.

best regards--
Charles
