Mindist gave segmentation fault 11

Dear GROMACS community,

I am new to the (virtual) neighborhood (but not to the use of MD simulations)!

I tried to use gmx minddist, but received a segmentation fault error. My command-line input was:
gmx mindist -n index.ndx -f prep.xtc

The groups I selected from index.ndx file are below. Each group consists of 77 atoms.

The segmentation fault occurred on frame 200 out of 400. I have also received segmentation faults for groups of larger atoms after fewer frames were processed.

I’m using version 2022.3.

Please let me know how I can resolved this issue? Should I simply reduce my selections to analyze more frames?

If you need any other information to be helpful, please just let me know.

Best,

Hi,
did you have topol.tpr in the working directory?
You could try to add the option -s {file_name}.tpr to the comman line.
I feel that the problem is not due to the dimension of index file.
Kind regards
Alessandra
