Here post your question
Hello, everyone, i am new to gromacs, i just try to insert a membrane protein into dppc bilayer by using mdrun -membed command.
During creating the file .tpr by using grompp command:
gmx grompp -c prot+dppc+sol_solvdel.gro -p system.top -f g_membed.mdp -n index.ndx -o membed.tpr -maxwarn 2
i got this information:
ERROR 1 [file g_membed.mdp]:
Energy group exclusions are currently not supported
so i deleted the corresponding paragraph in g_membed.mdp file:
; ENERGY GROUP EXCLUSIONS
; Pairs of energy groups for which all non-bonded interactions are excluded
energygrp-excl = PROTEIN_GMEMBED PROTEIN_GMEMBED
after that, it successfully creats membed.tpr file; but displays two warnings (i don’t know whether it matters, but it seems to be serious problems):
There were 2 warnings
double free or corruption (out)
Aborted (core dumped)
then when i try to use mdrun -membed command to insert the protein into the membrane:
echo PROTEIN_GMEMBED DPPC | gmx mdrun -membed membed.dat -s membed.tpr -mn index.ndx -v -c confout.pdb
it faced another error:
Input error or input inconsistency:
No energy exclusion groups defined. This is necessary for energy exclusion in the freeze group
since i can not find any sentence including energy exclusion groups in any of above files except membed.mdp,
and it also seems like the the energy group exclusions option is only exist in .mdp files (after searching the internet),
so i am just wondering whether there is a contradictory condition between grompp and mdrun -membed command? or the core dumped error cause this?
how to solve this problem?
