As there two REMARKS in the psf file about NTER, please notice that in the
text-mode gen for vmd (calling psfgen) I explicitly asked

patch NTER PRA:2
>
> regenerate angles dihedrals
>

Is that a redundancy that created the problem?

thanks

Hello:
While trying to minimize a metalloproteinunder charmm27, with ALA first
residue (nr 2), the log reports:

*Info: SUMMARY OF PARAMETERS:Info: 191 BONDSInfo: 488 ANGLESInfo: 601
DIHEDRALInfo: 47 IMPROPERInfo: 6 CROSSTERMInfo: 125 VDWInfo: 0
VDW_PAIRSInfo: 0 NBTHOLE_PAIRSFATAL ERROR: UNABLE TO FIND ANGLE PARAMETERS
FOR NH3 HC NH3 (ATOMS 1 4 1)------------- Processor 0 Exiting: Called
CmiAbort ------------Reason: FATAL ERROR: UNABLE TO FIND ANGLE PARAMETERS
FOR NH3 HC NH3 (ATOMS 1 4 1)*

The relevant part of the psf file shows that the first residue was patched

*REMARKS segment ION { first NONE; last NONE; auto angles dihedrals

Apparently the system does not complain about the metal center. I never met
that error with patched NTER. Thanks for advice
