[gmx-users] Fw: problem in extending MD in Gromacs 2018

[Mark Abraham]

Hi,

We can't tell on the information given, because it is how you call mdrun
that matters, but the 2018 log file will tell you what is wrong. For
example, if you use gmx mdrun -deffnm md-extended then the output filenames
all have different names, and it can't know for sure what you intend.
Various operations are no longer supported in more recent versions, because
they sometimes led to people losing their files.

More generally, the practice of manually naming all your files with
numerical suffixes doesn't give you any value. mdrun will do that for you
with the -noappend option. Or leave the names as default and restarts and
appending will just work.
