Dear NAMD experts,
I am using "dummyAtom" to define an atom in a colvar in ABF as below:
distanceZ {
main {
atomnumbers { 1 }
}
ref {
dummyAtom (-10.16, -7.78, -8.25)
}
axis (1.0, 0.0, 0.0)
}
}
Right after running the program, I get the message below in the output file:
ETITLE: TS BOND ANGLE DIHED IMPRP ELECT VDW BOUNDARY MISC KINETIC TOTAL TEMP POTENTIAL TOTAL3 TEMPAVG PRESSURE GPRESSURE VOLUME PRESSAVG GPRESSAVG

OPENING EXTENDED SYSTEM TRAJECTORY FILE
colvars: Error: system forces are not available from a dummy atom group.
colvars: If this error message is unclear, try recompiling with -DCOLVARS_DEBUG.
FATAL ERROR: Error in the collective variables module: exiting.
------------- Processor 0 Exiting: Called CmiAbort ------------
Reason: FATAL ERROR: Error in the collective variables module: exiting.
I am wondering how and where I should define something so that ABF can find the forces for dummyAtom?
Thanks,
Parisa
