[gmx-users] g_wham error analysis hangs

Hi Magnus,

I just read your mail. Sound very much like a bug, which never occurred
to me though. But I did not use -bs-method traj-gauss a lot. Does the
error also occur with -bs-method traj?

Btw: with -bs-method traj-gauss or traj, you need realistic estimates of
the autocorrelation times (ACTs). If you underestimate the ACTs, you
will underestimate your errors.

If this error still occurs with the latest version, could you make a
tar-ball of your tpr and pullf files, put them online, and send me the link?

Then I will try to fix the bug.

Best,
Jochen
