[gmx-users] Segmentation fault mdrun

[Alex s]

There was a typo in the last message, I found NO issues in point 2.

Thanks for the reply
I've attached a copy of my mdp file. It is a coarse grained system so a time step of 0.04 shouldn't be a problem. Regarding the link you've given, points 1 and 4 are not applicable to my situation, I've tried point 2 and found issues. What should I be looking for in point 3?
Thanks
Alex

However for my system I successfully run energy minimization and equilibration. When I run md the segmentation fault occurs usually very late on the system (past the 100ns mark).

For example for one system, I ran it ION free and I had no issues, however when I just replace 12 water molecules with NA+ and CL- this leads to a segmentation fault. Also I was able to fix this error in another system just by changing the time step from to 0.04 to 0.03.
