Hi i'm doing umbella sampling. whenever i use gmx distance after pulling in V.5.1.4 , i wouldn't have proper dist.xvg file.for example; this my mdp file for pulling:
integrator = md dt = 0.001 nsteps = 2500000 nstxout = 5000 nstvout = 5000 nstfout = 500 nstlog = 500 nstenergy = 1000 nstxtcout = 1000 nstlist = 10 rlist = 1.5 cutoff_scheme = group coulombtype = pme rcoulomb = 1.5 vdwtype = Switch rvdw_switch = 1.0 rvdw = 1.2 pcoupl = no gen_vel = no constraints = h-bonds ns_type = grid pbc = xy freezegrps = WAL ZnS freezedim = Y Y Y Y Y Y energygrp-excl = WAL WAL ZnS ZnS energygrps = SOL WAL ZnS Protein NA CL nwall = 2 wall-atomtype = C C wall-type = 9-3 wall-density = 150 150 wall-ewald-zfac = 3 ewald-geometry = 3dc fourierspacing = 0.12 tcoupl = v-rescale tc-grps = System tau-t = 0.1 ref-t = 300 ; Pull code pull = yes pull_ngroups = 2 pull_ncoords = 1 pull_group1_name = ZnS pull_group2_name = Protein pull_coord1_type = umbrella pull_coord1_geometry = direction pull_coord1_groups = 1 2 pull_coord1_dim = N N Y pull_coord1_vec = 0 0 1 pull_coord1_rate = -0.001 pull_coord1_k = 5000 pull_coord1_start = yes pull_nstxout = 10 and this is dist0.xvg # This file was created Thu Jan 11 03:19:07 2018 # Created by: # :-) GROMACS - gmx distance, VERSION 5.1.4 (-: # # Executable: /usr/local/gromacs/bin/gmx # Data prefix: /usr/local/gromacs # Command line: # gmx distance -s pull.tpr -n index.ndx -f conf0.gro -oall dist0.xvg # gmx distance is part of G R O M A C S: # # ¸<86><9e><8c>ð<88><9a><8d><8c>ò<9e><8b><8a><8d><9a>þ<8b>ü<8d><86><90><98><9a><91><96><9c>ì<8f><9a><9a><9b> # @ title "Distance" @ xaxis label "Time (ps)" @ yaxis label "Distance (nm)" @TYPE xy 0.000 0.382 0.382 0.383 0.383 0.383 0.383 1.178 0.382 0.382 0.383 0.383 0.383 0.383 0.383 0.382 0.818 0.382 0.382 0.382 0.382 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.382 0.382 0.383 0.383 0.383 0.383 1.178 0.382 0.382 0.383 0.383 0.383 0.383 0.383 0.382 0.818 0.382 0.382 0.382 0.382 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.541 0.108 0.176 0.128 0.100 0.109 0.109 0.110 0.179 0.097 0.123 0.101 0.109 0.184 ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ "dist0.xvg" [converted] 17L, 3161C and summary distances.dat after using perl 0 0.382 1 0.382 2 ..... 3 ..... . . . ---------------------------------------------------- i don't have this problem in V.4.5.4, this is mdp file for pulling: integrator = md dt = 0.002 nsteps = 1000000 nstxout = 5000 nstvout = 5000 nstfout = 500 nstlog = 500 nstenergy = 1000 nstxtcout = 1000 nstlist = 10 rlist = 1.5 coulombtype = pme rcoulomb = 1.5 vdwtype = Switch rvdw_switch = 1.0 rvdw = 1.2 pcoupl = no gen_vel = no constraints = h-bonds ns_type = grid pbc = xy freezegrps = WAL ZnS freezedim = Y Y Y Y Y Y energygrp-excl = WAL WAL ZnS ZnS energygrps = SOL WAL ZnS Protein NA CL nwall = 2 wall-atomtype = C C wall-type = 9-3 wall-density = 150 150 wall-ewald-zfac = 3 ewald-geometry = 3dc fourierspacing = 0.12 tcoupl = v-rescale tc-grps = System tau-t = 0.1 ref-t = 300 ; Pull code pull = umbrella pull_ngroups = 1 pull_group0 = ZnS pull_group1 = Protein pull_geometry = direction pull_vec1 = 0 0 1 pull_dim = N N Y pull_rate1 = -0.013 pull_k1 = 5000 pull_start = yes pull_nstxout = 50 and this is dist0.xvg # This file was created Thu Jan 11 03:36:46 2018 # by the following command: # g_dist -s pull.tpr -n index.ndx -f conf0.gro -o dist0.xvg # # g_dist is part of G R O M A C S: # # Green Red Orange Magenta Azure Cyan Skyblue # @ title "Distance" @ xaxis label "Time (ps)" @ yaxis label "Distance (nm)" @TYPE xy @ view 0.15, 0.15, 0.75, 0.85 @ legend on @ legend box on @ legend loctype view @ legend 0.78, 0.8 @ legend length 2 @ s0 legend "|d|" @ s1 legend "d\sx\N" @ s2 legend "d\sy\N" @ s3 legend "d\sz\N" 0.0000000 1.7630774 0.0185155 -0.0197599 -1.7628694 ~ ---------- i'm really confused,i don't what is the problem?!
