[gmx-users] Re: Fatal error: Error: Too many iterations in routine JACOBI

[Una Bjarnadottir]

Hi all and thanks Tsjerk for your reply
I found out I used the wrong group in the index file when running g_rmsf 

But now when I run:

g_covar -f md.trr -s xaver.pdb -ascii covar.dat -ref

I get some memory error:

*** glibc detected *** g_covar: malloc(): memory corruption: 0x09b03660 ***

But g_covar runs fine using other -ref files like md.tpr but does not accept the xaver.pdb file. My md.trr file is 541M does that has to do with anything.

All helpful comments are highly appreciated.

Best regards, Una


Hi Una,

Do the xaver.pdb and the md.trr correspond in terms of atom numbers?
The JACOBI error has to do with the fitting. The 'broken molecule'
thing is a warning, issued because you give a .pdb file which does not
contain information regarding connectivity, which coulod otherwise be
used to make broken molecules whole. But you shouldn't have broken
molecules if you didn't run trjconv on the trajectory with certain the
-pbc options.

Cheers,

Tsjerk
