eABF run issue: czar.grad file not covering the reaction coordinates

Dear Users,
I am running eABF but it's not filling more than two bins and sometimes
only one. I have 108 pdbs. The trajectories are not moving much.
My input files are as follows

colvar {

     name gs

                width 0.05

                lowerboundary 0

                upperboundary 1

                extendedlagrangian on

                extendedfluctuation 0.5

                # Use atomic coordinate from atoms 1, 2 and 3 to compute
the path

                gspath {

               atoms {atomnumbers { 12961 12975 12985 ..... 13062 61848
61880 }}

                refPositionsFile1 ../1.pdb

                refPositionsFile2 ../2.pdb

                refPositionsFile3 ../3.pdb

                refPositionsFile4 ../4.pdb

...

abf {

                        colvars gs

                        fullSamples 500

                        historyfreq 10000

                    }

                        harmonic {

                        colvars gz

                        centers 0.0

                        forceconstant 0.05

I have change the value of extendedfluctuation from 0.4 to 2.0. But in all
cases czar.grad file value is in one bin or two bins. Some of the czar.grad
files have values in only one bin.

Any suggestion would help. Attached are my input and relevant output file.

Many thanks,

Ashutosh
