Dear All,

while energy minimization with the protein fixed i am getting following error:


*t = 0.011 ps: Water molecule starting at atom 21089 can not be settled.

Rigid water models and EM are not a great combination. define = -DFLEXIBLE in the .mdp file is usually a good idea.
Position restraints are normally a better idea than frozen atoms for EM.

*Check for bad contacts and/or reduce the timestep.*
Even if i am reducing timesteps its not working.
The minim.mdp file which i have used is:;
