[gmx-users] g_rdf (lyzozyme tutorial)

Dear Justin
I use gromacs (4.0.5).
This is the command line:

g_rdf -f md_0_1.xtc -s md_0_1.tpr -xy -o rdf.xvg

This is what appears on the screen and stops there without any change !!!
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Select a group: 3
Selected 3: 'C-alpha'
Select a group: 3
Selected 3: 'C-alpha'
Reading frame       0 time    0.000
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
According to what you said I checked it for DPPC monolayer adsorbed on water surface. Again the same thing happened .........................


This was the system that I have previously plotted so many rdf plots with -xy option for that. But that time the gromacs version was 3.3.3, something like this.

So It seems there is something wrong with this gromacs version.

Thanks
Regards
D.M

What version of Gromacs is this?  Does g_rdf simply stop, or does it produce an error?  Does it produce a segmentation fault?

Also note that the -xy option is much more useful for systems involving surfaces or membranes; I doubt it will be very informative for a system that tumbles in 3 dimensions.  Notwithstanding, if there's a bug it should be fixed, but it may not be critical.
