molmaker.py not functioning as expected was created by Jingjie Yeo
I have been trying to obtain a .gro file for the pegylated lipid. i used the command
./molmaker.py -i pegylated.itp -o test.gro -ff martini_v2.0.itp

It immediately throws the error:
grompp error: check .molmk test.pp.log

However, no such file exists even if I use the "-keep" flag (in fact nothing appears at all), and there are no further clues as to what is going on. Would this be related to the fact that I am using Gromacs 5.0.4?

Hi,

Thanks for reporting on this.
I haven't tried GROMACS 5 with molmaker yet, and my guess is that it is indeed the cause for failure (cutoff-scheme, for instance, now defaults to verlet). If you're only after the structure is it possible to just run molmaker.py with GROMACS 4?

As to the missing output, that's quite odd. You should always get that file. Note that it is a hidden file (there's a leading period in its filename); you need to run ls -a to see it.
Also, by default the prefix is '.molmk_', with an underscore, not '.molmk ' as you have in your quoted error. Did you mis-copy it here? Or was it really like that on the command-line?

Cheers and let me know,
Manel

Hi Manel,

Thank you for the information, I tested it with Gromacs 4.6 and it works fine. May I know whether it will eventually be ported to Gromacs 5.x?

Ah, great you got it working!

Up until now there hadn't yet been a need for GROMACS 5 with it. I'll work on updating it, maybe by performing version detection.

I'll let you know here when it's done.
Cheers,
Manel
