Hi,

I have tried to run a FEP calculation. Below is my input file.

memory total 1500 Mb

start dutch


permanent_dir ./perm

scratch_dir /tmp

md
system dutch_neb

cutoff 1.5 qmmm 1.5

noshake solute

isotherm 0 298.15 anneal 0 3

equil 5000

record rest 1

mwm 4000
end

qmmm
print low
nsamples 1000
ncycles 10
end


set qmmm:fep_geom dutch_neb-s.xyzi dutch_neb-e.xyzi
set qmmm:fep_esp dutch_neb-s.esp dutch_neb-e.esp
set qmmm:fep_lambda 0.0 0.1
set qmmm:fep_deriv .true.


task qmmm dft fep


However, after a while the calcalution was aborted with the following error.

Total number of active Bq charges 3711
frozen_density,esp T T

using old esp charges

using old esp charges

qmmm_bq_data_load               Failed bq_pset        0

This type of error is most commonly associated with calculations not reaching convergence criteria

I'm wondering what this error implies. I have run 9 pairs of beads (there were total 10 beads) and all of them exited with the same error.

Any advice is really appreciated.

Somehow I think the release 6.3 of nwchem doesn't function properly for this module. I tried this version on both chinook and another cluster and gained the same error. However, once I tried release 6.1 of nwchem, the problem seemed gone.

same problem
Hi,

I encountered the same problem with you,

qmmm_bq_data_load Failed bq_pset 0

When change to NWChem-6.1, it ended normally.

Thanks,

Jingbo
