Dear users,
I want to find value of log P from the water-octanol partition coefficient of a small molecule. I am following Justin tutorial for free energy calculation in water system. i have two queries1. how to construct the system in which octanol is saturated with water in a cubic box?2. I am new  to programming. in first system where small molecule is placed in water, my job.sh file is not running.Following is the errorcorona2 at corona2-HP-Z820-Workstation:~/Documents/FEC$ /Home/Documents/FEC/em_steep_0.sh/
bash: /Home/Documents/FEC/em_steep_0.sh/: No such file or directory

After failing this command I give single command for each step for energy minimization.
 gmx grompp -f em_steep_0.mdp -c coordinatefile.gro -p topol.top -o em_0.tpr


NOTE 1 [file em_steep_0.mdp]:
  With Verlet lists the optimal nstlist is >= 10, with GPUs >= 20. Note
  that with the Verlet scheme, nstlist has no effect on the accuracy of
  your simulation.
