[gmx-users] Obtaining energies from trr files

[Chng Choon Peng]

Dear David,

   Thanks for the reply.

I heard about -rerun option in mdrun but never used it.
Tried it just now and run into errors:

% mdrun -s md.tpr -rerun md_WAT_7.xtc
...

Reading file md.tpr, VERSION 3.1.5_pre1 (single precision)
starting md rerun 'Protein in water', reading coordinates from input
trajectory 'md_WAT_7.xtc'

Reading frame       0 time    0.000
WARNING: Some frames do not contain velocities.
         Ekin, temperature and pressure are incorrect,
         the virial will be incorrect when constraints are present.

Segmentation fault
-----------

I modified one of the energy 'tc_grps' and added a new one.
Repeated for 'energygrps' as well.

Yes, my trajectory files do not contain velocities nor forces:
nstxout             =  5000     ; collect data every 10 ps
nstvout             =  0
nstfout             =  0

But I should still be able to get vdW and coulomb which only depends on
separation, right?

Thanks again.


Regards,
Choon-Peng
