if you suspect PME, then try running without it.
Hi again,
the short range energies come out as zero with all electrostatic methods
cut-off, PME, shift. But only the short range. Other components get some
numbers (and you _can_ continue the simulation for at least thousands of
steps).
can you try a small water box on one processor?
just to eliminate problems. if you can simulate, that means the forces are
correct (or zero too...) try printing the forces in other words.
just do one step with all output turned on.
Hi,
tried that. Forces are almost zero in a small water system (4 first
molecules of spc216.gro) as calculated with mdrun_mpi using one
processor. With the serial version I get bigger values.
I then enlarged the box and increased electrostatics and vdw cutoffs
(no PME) to 3 nm so that all atoms feel short range interactions. Now
if I compare the forces they are identical for the first 13 atoms (and
the x-component for the 14th) and then they differ as shown below.
Here are the outputs from veloc.xvg (g_traj -ov ) for the mdrun_mpi
(one step, no initial velocities):

Something starts to go wrong after the first few atoms? Also if I
reduce the cutoffs to 0.1 nm, I get short range nonbondeds as zero in
both serial and parallel and also other energies identical.
These are the forces without any short range forces (cutoff 0.1 nm):
