Was your single molecule coordinate file energy minimised?

 

Did you look at the coordinate file for multiple molecules?

 

In your grompp step before em, what is that coordinate file you are
feeding to it?  It has a different name to the one you generated using
genconf.

Sorry guys, I'm still learning the lingo.

I want to simulate multiple molecules.

This is what I tried:

genconf -f polygly.pdb -nbox 2 2 2 -shuffle  -o did_it_work.pdb

Does this even seem like the right thing to do?

I got to this part:

grompp -v -f em -c b4em -o em -p speptide 
mdrun -v -s em -o em -c after_em -g emlog 

But I get an error that essentially tells me that my system needs to be
energy minimized:

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 .. 150
]


I'm guessing I'm pretty wrong in my approach to adding multiple
molecules based on a single molecule pdb file.  I'm determined to get
this :)
