<br>&quot;</span>You are right &#39;CPMD sleeps&#39; expecting further communication from 
Gromacs. This part was not taken care of in the current version. We are

Dear users,<br><br>I am trying to use gromacs/CPMD. <br><br>Gromacs-3.3.1_qmmm-1.3.2<br>CPMD-3.13.2<br><br>To test it, I am doing a 0 step md. The problem is that CPMD runs until the schedule time is finished. It is waiting to ./QMCONTINUE, which is never going to be, because gmx has finished<br>

<br>Does anyone know what can be the problem?<br><br>These are the last lines of output.mdrun and md.log. There you can see how CPMD exits at 20:14:15, while gmx has finished at 18:45<br><br><br><br>  INTERFACE| FORCES WRITTEN TO FILE <br>
