Hi,

 

I know some other issues with Win7 and other programs, but if you start VMD as admin maybe it will work for you too.

 

 

Sincerely

Betreff: vmd-l: vmd-I: Fatal Error: Unable to Open CHARMM Parameter File

 

Hello VMD Community,

 

I am new to the NAMD software, and have been working through the tutorials on the website. Unfortunately, I cannot seem to run the tutorial simulation.

When I run it in a Terminal window, I get the following message:

 

Processor 0 Exiting: Called CmiAbort

Reason: Fatal Error: Unable To Open CHARMM Parameter File ../common/par_all27 _prot_lipid.inp

 

I have tried editing the path in Environment Variables and downloading the file again from the website. I have also checked to make sure the path name is correct and the file is placed in the correct location. The configuration file is properly set-up, as well. I am using the software on a Windows 7 PC.

 

Does anyone have any suggestions or tips as to how to resolve this problem?

I appreciate your time and consideration.

 

Thanks,

 

Akshata Rudrapatna
