Hello,

Thanks for the answer it seems that it was the problem. Now I am just facing a new kind of problem, running this tutorial - in which there are only +-23 000 atoms I get an error message: "Memory allocation failed on processor 0". This was not the case when using the same setup for MM only...

Do you know what the problem might be?

Hello,

I think the error is pretty much self-explanatory. The QM/MM interface is not compatible with CUDA yet, therefore the CUDA-enabled version of NAMD will not run.

The matter can be easily resolved; simply compile a second NAMD version without CUDA support (i.e. using only CPUs) and use that. Or download one of the precompiled distributions if you're in a hurry.

Just a note, the version you say you have is not 2.12, it's a nightly build with newer features, that will eventually become version 2.13. So I would advise you to consult the nightly build's user guide for more information (http://www.ks.uiuc.edu/Research/namd/cvs/ug/654356%7C0&sdata=IthD2dUlb9JxxM9NS64UwyWlWk1XeGL8tbZVO4OYUgc%3D&reserved=0> ). Although, from a quick glance, I see that they still haven't included the QM/MM code in the guide yet.

Dear All,

I'm trying to go through the 'NAMD-QM/MM' tutorial and have already got to the point where I prepared (with the help of QwikMD) the inputs for the QMMM-Min simulation. Once I load it into QwikMD and launch the 'Start Minimization' simulation (and select the number of CPUs to use and set up the namd2 executable path - which worked perfectly without the QMMM before) it returns with a FATAL ERROR message. In the .log file everything works until the point where QMMM is needed. There I get the message:

"FATAL ERROR: QM forces are not compatible with CUDA at this time".

I'm using a version of NAMD: NAMD_Git-2018-06-13_Linux-x86_64-multicore-CUDA (2.12). MOPAC has been installed and CUDA-5.5 has been set up for. The same error message occurs when using ORCA instead of MOPAC so I guess it is independent of the QM software applied.

Could anyone help what the problem might be?
