    As I suggested a few emails ago, are you sure that -cpi file exists?
    If your numerical suffixes are indexing restarts, then unless you've
    done some manual copying that you haven't told us about, it won't.
    Your filename scheme seems a bit contorted - like you're trying to
    do the work that GROMACS 4.5.x will just do for you if you let it.<br>
    <br>
    Otherwise, you'll have to do some detective work with gmxcheck on
    the -cpi to see what might be the issue.<br>
    <br>
    In your case, an initial<br>
    <br>
    mdrun -deffnm rex_3<br>
    <br>
    (perhaps save some copies while you're experimenting) and
    subsequently<br>
    <br>
    tpbconv -extend &lt;blah&gt; -f rex_3 -o rex_3<br>
    mdrun -deffnm rex_3 -append<br>
    <br>
    will work and be much simpler than whatever you're trying to do with
    filenames :-)<br>

                  More useful for diagnostic and record-preservation
                  purposes is to construct the cmd string and print it
