Hi Georgios --

I am a newcomer in this field and the use of APBS. I am trying to produce
an electrostatic potential map for a protein surface and I am using
Windows XP. Although I have installed succesfully Pymol v0.99, APBS v0.4.0 and the M.Lerner's plug-in,following Lerner's instructions, I can load my pdb file, I can generate the .pqr and .in files, but the programme doesn't
generate the .dx file resulting to the message:

ObjectMapLoadDxFile-Error:Unable to load file!

This typically means (1) something is misconfigured in the APBS/PyMOL setup such as spaces in the path to the APBS binary, etc., or (2) something went wrong with the APBS calculation. To rule out the second case, can you locate the APBS input file and PQR file you're using with these calculations and send them along for debugging purposes?

Is there any incopatibility or lack of commands or scripts that elude me? I tried the VMD v1.8.5 and v1.8.4 to visualize the electrostatic potential following the instructions from the tutorial, but the procedure is stopped at the same stage... Cannot load the .dx file because it doesn't exist..

This definitely sounds like a probably with the calculation -- the relevant APBS input and PQR files should help us track this down.

Thanks,

Nathan


I searched the APBS,Pymol and VMD forums but I couldn't find a solution.
Please Help me!
