[gmx-users] force=nan in frame 0

[dongsheng zhang]

Dear Mark,

Thank you for your reply. I have used gromacs before. In fact, I have built
this FF before, and using it successfully. My old computer was crashed, so I
need to do it again. The potential energies looked fine in the md.log. Even
I turn off all potentials. I still get the initial foce = nan. Could you
please give me any suggest about it?

Thanks!

Dongsheng

You could have made a mistake at every step. You should do some tutorial 
material, and get used to the mechanics *before* you attempt to define 
and use your own forcefields. Learn to walk before trying to run. Check 
out most of the wiki at http://wiki.gromacs.org
