[gmx-users] GROMACS on glacier.westgrid.ca

[Paymon Pirzadeh]

Hello all,
A follow up from my previous problems on running the gromacs on glacier
turned out that I had problems in installation. The guide in the manual
was not clear enough. So, I installed the code fine this time, so, I get
errors from 4.0.4 version. 
I ran the code interactively on the master node and everything went
smooth and fine without any problems. But as soon as I started running
it in parallel through que line, job gets killed. Following are the
messages I received:

PBS Job Id: 4686006.teva.westgrid.ubc

> >> Exec host:  ice1_2/1+ice1_2/0+ice1_1/1+ice1_1/0
> >> Aborted by PBS Server
> >> Job cannot be executed

The error messages I receive in error file:
> >> Killed by signal 2.^M
> >> Killed by signal 2.^M
> >> Killed by signal 2.^M

Running on 4 processors.

All the clues show that the program had started working, initial
conditions were reviewed by the code, but suddenly everything crashed. I
really do not know where the error originates from!!! This is while my
friend has compiled the code in the same way as I did, and she is
running fine on another cluster.
