I wrote this reply yesterday, but it didn’t make it to the babble list somehow. When I try obabel ~/Desktop/crystal_ligand_flex.sdf -O tst-res.sdf --confab --conf 5 (with your example file), I get a file with 2900 conformers written, so I believe there is a problem with your installation.

Hi, Does the input file contain 3D-coordinates? As far as I have seen, neither confab nor conformer will generate an initial 3D structure if it’s not already present. Kind regards, Fredrik 6 maj 2014 kl. 19:39 skrev Douglas Houston dhous...@staffmail.ed.ac.uk: Anyone have any comment on
