[gmx-users] Possible free energy bug? (NOT SOLVED)

Hi All,

Unfortunately, my positive news was a false alarm.  Intermediate values of 
lambda are sporadically failing at different times.  Some jobs exit at time 
zero, others last somewhat longer (several hundred ps) before failing.  I'm 
going to keep working on the suggestions I got before about compilation options 
and such, but for now I will post the error output to see if it provides any 
clues about what's wrong:

Warning: Only triclinic boxes with the first vector parallel to the x-axis and 
the second vector in the xy-plane are supported.

I have not yet compiled with debugging enabled, but I can if that will be useful.
