[phenixbb] index error in phenix refinement

Hi Raja,

the problem is that you have an empty selection for a rigid group in 
your rigid_body_selections.params file:

"rigid_body = chain E and chain F".

Indeed, if I do:

phenix.pdb_atom_selection p53_2.1.pdb "chain E and chain F"

it will tell it:

(...)
chain E and chain F
  0 atoms selected

The newer version of phenix.refine will not crash but it will stop with 
this message (I just tried):

(...)
================== Extract refinement strategy and selections 
=================

Sorry: Empty selection.
(...)

So, it's probably a good idea to update to the latest version:
http://www.phenix-online.org/download/

Regarding your selection, you probably meant "chain E or chain F" (and 
not "chain E and chain F") assuming that chains E and F form one rigid body.

Pavel.
