Dear gromacs usres,

 I have run the umbrella sampling with the help of tutorial of justin. In
my system rna is binding with gold nanoparticle. To find out the binding
energy, i run the umbrella sampling using the space 0.1 nm and i got total
79 configurations, each configuration was run for 5 ns. Using g_wham, i got
the profile.xvg, in that profile.xvg,  all PMF values are zero. while
running g_wham i am getting warings like below.

WARNING, no data point in bin 163 (z=8.27767) !
You may not get a reasonable profile. Check your histograms!

WARNING, no data point in bin 164 (z=8.31563) !
You may not get a reasonable profile. Check your histograms!

WARNING, no data point in bin 165 (z=8.35358) !
You may not get a reasonable profile. Check your histograms!
Warning, poor sampling bin 194 (z=9.45432). Check your histograms!

Please help me in this regard.
