it is because when i put

genbox -cp protein_box.gro -ci solvent.gro -nmol 1381 -p control.top
-o prot_solv.gro

the error turn out like this :

System total charge: 0.000
Grid: 17 x 16 x 14 cells
nri = 12718, nrj = 100152
Try 9119box_margin = 0.45overlap:

thats why i need to run genbox twice


Sorry, read the original message too quickly and thought the solvent configuration was the same both times. My mistake :)

The error you receive is a result of genbox failing to do what you're asking. You've exhausted the memory available, suggesting that there is no way to add that many molecules of whatever solvent into the box. Either set a larger box with editconf prior to this step, or try to insert fewer molecules.

Thanks Justin.

May I ask something, if i'm using the command for genbox before
minimization which is

genbox -cp protein_box.gro -cs solvent.gro -p control.top -o prot_solv.gro

next i insert water by using same command;

genbox -cp prot_solv.gro -p control.top -cs spc216.gro -o
prot_solv_wtr.gro maxsol 350

i'm using -cs for both genbox command instead of -ci -nmol, is it
wrong to use the command like that?



I don't understand why you need two invocations of genbox, but syntactically
the
commands are correct.  The -ci -nmol options are for adding molecules
randomly
in the unit cell.  The -cs option is for stacking grids of water boxes (or
whatever other solvent you provide) within the unit cell.

Dear All users

How to can i replace a molecule(for example methane) with another
molecule(propane)?
Number of these molecules are given and their position is random,

Can I use genbox or genion, How to do i do it?


Likely you can't, as you were already advised:

A more robust approach for dealing with mixed systems can be found here:
