[gmx-users] Segmentation fault after merging two equilibrated molecules!

Hi Sajjad,

maybe a periodic boundary issue (they seem to be apart in the central
simulation box, but are superimposed with the periodic images of each
other)? try to open the structure with a program that allows periodic
images to be visualized along with the central box to see if there are any
clashes (I'd use VMD for that purpose).

I hope it helps

Andre
