Before step 1, gromacs outputs the number of atoms per QM layer, e.g.

Reading file topol.tpr, VERSION 3.3_rc3 (single precision)
QM/MM calculation requested.
Layer 0
nr of QM atoms 20
QMlevel: CASSCF/3-21G,CASelectrons=6,CASorbitals=6


How much are there in your simulaiton? This might tell if it goes wrong in gromacs side, or in cpmd.

Potassium (9th atom) just skipped.
Any clue?

For the Gromacs-CPMD interface you have to specify the QM groups in your .mdp file like this "QMMM-grps = QM_part". Then open your index file and create an atom group with the same name "QM_part" and add in
it all atoms that you want to treat with CPMD.
If this doesn't work you should send to the list a output of you
calculation.

Dear all,
We successfully passed all examples in GMX-CPMD and some other stuff
with amberff with common atoms, but since we trying to deal with K+
(potassium)  in QM  part, we see every time absence of potassium in
CPMD_inp.run, it's just skipped. In very beginning CPMD shows right number
of atoms in QM group, but K is not mentioned in cpmd input file.

Potassium and pseudopotential was included in CPMD_inp.tmpl.
We checked different ways of including Potassium in ff, like amber_XX or
just K+.
Pseudopotential was build with Ultrasoft Pseudopotential Package.
Gmx-cpmd was compiled from site P. K. Biswas.

Any ideas?
Thanks in advance, Andrey
