[gmx-users] minimization error

[Rongliang Wu]

Hello gmx-users,

	my minimization error is as follows:
   Low-Memory BFGS Minimizer:
   Tolerance (Fmax)   =  1.00000e+01
   Number of steps    =         2000
Using 10 BFGS correction steps.

   F-max             =  7.76108e+09 on atom 155
   F-Norm            =          NaN

Program mdrun, VERSION 3.3
Source code file: nsgrid.c, line: 226

Range checking error:
Explanation: During neighborsearching, we assign each particle to a grid
based on its coordinates. If your system contains collisions or parameter
errors that give particles very high velocities you might end up with some
coordinates being +-Infinity or NaN (not-a-number). Obviously, we cannot
put these on a grid, so this is usually where we detect those errors.
Make sure your system is properly energy-minimized and that the potential
energy seems reasonable before trying again.

Variable ci has value -2147483648. It should have been within [ 0 .. 144 ]
Please report this to the mailing list (gmx-users at gromacs.org)

    this is the first time i came to this problem, do i have to enlarge my system to prevent molecules from being too close?!

Thanks!

Regards!
