[gmx-users] Problems with tabulated potentials

Dear all;

I ran a simulation using two tabulated potentials for two energy groups but it seems that 
Gromacs is not generating any potential because LJ energies = 0.0000  in every step.

The groups are TET and HS and they are represented in index.ndx. Their tabulated potentials
are table_TET_TET.xvg and table_HS_HS.xvg respectively. The charge of every atom is zero and
the Gromacs version is 3.3.3.

My parameter and md.log files are:

Could you please tell me what is wrong ?


P.S.

even I have tried:

mdrun_mpi  -s topol.tpr  -table table.xvg -tablep table_TET_TET.xvg table_HS_HS.xvg   
-x traj -o traj   -g md

But I got the same result.


Thanks in advance,

Harry G.
