Hi Lucas,
It would be very informative to see the whole log file, especially the
section on intensity statistics.
Furthermore, please run the data in P21 through xtriage and find that it
is pseudo C222 with a single twin law.
I guess you have close to perfect twinning on the operator -h,-h+k,-l
(which will look different in P21).
Please try
phenix.refine twinning=True twin_law=<whatever xtriage gives you>
model.pdb data.mtz
I hope you have choosen your free set with phenix.refine or
iotbx.reflection_file_converter to get twin law compatible free set
(done by default in phenix.refine, even if no twin law is specified).
Let me know if you have any other problems,
Peter
