CHARMM in nwchem 6.8


Just Got Here
Hi, everybody!

I tried to run a simple MD simulation with the charmm ff in nwchem 6.8 and 6.6.
But I get strange errors (see below for input and output) when trying to prepare the system: missing parameters for the protein residues even though these parameters are listed in the charmm.par file.....

Did anybody tested charmm ff in nwchem 6.8 or 6.6?
Can she/he provide me with some test files?
Thanks in advance!

Best,
Martin

Input:

  1. This is a AMBER test that uses a PDB geometry, and the *.frg files from NWChem to asign atom types

Title "big"

memory 3500 Mb
permanent_dir .

echo

prepare
system big
source big.pdb
new_top new_seq
new_rst
solvent name HOH model TIP3
end

print debug
task prepare


Output (last lines):

Number of atom types is         25
Parameter file /opt/nwchem-6.8/src/data/charmm_s/charmm.par

pre_ffield done
