The dt seems extremely small and the tau_t uncommonly large.
It seems to me, you just made the heat-up process very slow with such
a small dt, you should really check setup again.

Yeah, that is common, you could to pressure correcting later down the road.

Sorry what is the error message?

 And again you can set step to 0.00001, but that seems uncommonly
small and you will have to collect 100 times more statistics (= 100
longer simulation) if you make the bins size 100 times smaller.
