gui occupancy group selection crash
by Petri Kursula 13 May '14

13 May '14

Hi, I’m trying to set up constrained occupancy groups in the GUI, but trying to add selections, the entire Phenix GUI crashes. This happens when clicking the plus sign in the dialogue attached. This is with the PHENIX-1.9-1692 build (updating from 1.8.x did not help) with OSX Mavericks (10.9.2). I know this worked before smoothly, so there perhaps is a bug somewhere.

Continue mr_rosetta after system crash?
by Oliver Clarke 13 May '14

13 May '14

Hi all, I was running a mr_rosetta job on an 8-core machine, and after 3 days of apparently fruitful computation (784/1000 initial models generated), my system crashed for an apparently unrelated reason (there are no errors in the rosetta logs - I suspect a brief power outage or something of the sort). I am guessing the answer is no, but I just thought I’d check whether anyone knows of a way to continue such a job from where it left off without having to start from scratch? Best, Oliver.

HLs not recognised
by Jonathan Grimes 12 May '14

12 May '14

I am trying to refine a structure at low resolution and would like to use phase restraints. using the GUI even though HLs are present in the MTZ file, and are type “A”…checked with CAD…..i am not given the option of selecting them. not clear to me what I’m doing wrong. hints most wellcome thanks jon Dr. Jonathan M.

No bonded contacts

Is there a straightforward way to turn off non-bonded restraints between 2 residues? I see the restraints in the .geo file. Thanks. Mark

Rosetta_refine stuck...?
by Jan Gebauer 10 May '14

10 May '14

Hello everyone, First of all thanks to the developers for improving the installation of rosetta_refine. In contrast to my experiences half a year ago, this time the installation was easy and straightforward. However, refining a 600 Aa @ 3.5 A with 4 mol per asu one more than one processor still completely breaks my computer. (Intel i5 2500K / 7.8 GB RAM) I think this might be a memory issue. Having only a "normal" PC, one process already uses 5GB of RAM which equals 60% of my RAM. With only one process running the first of five model was finished in roughly 3 hours. However, the second model already takes more than 10 hours, and the log file on the _ros_tempXXX file wasn't update for the last 9 hours. I can't see any progress, however it still uses 100% of one processor. Unix's top tells me that "reduce" is completely using this resource and that it had run for the last 821 minutes... so I guess rosetta_refine is somehow stuck? Any ideas why it is stuck and how to solve that? With kind regards, Jan Gebauer By the way: Is rosetta_refine meant to work on a "normal" Computer - like mine. In principle I would have access to a cluster, but set-up time there would be considerably long for me... -- Dr. Jan Gebauer AG Prof. Baumann Institut für Biochemie / Uni-Köln Otto-Fischer-Str. 12-14 / 50674 Köln Fon: +49 (221) 470 3212 Fax: +49 (221) 470 5066 http://px.uni-koeln.de/

FEM mtz won't open in coot

Hello Everyone, I'm having trouble opening the map file generated by phenix.fem in coot. Each time I try and load the .mtz file the follow error occurs 'Failed to find any suitable F/phi columns in the MTZ file'. Dumping the mtz file I can see: Col Sort Min Max Num % Mean Mean Resolution Type Column num order Missing complete abs.

PHENIX.apply_ncs question
by Sun Bingfa 08 May '14

08 May '14

Hi guys, I've been working on a structure using NCS. When I run the phenix.apply_ncs to generate the whole structure using the original one chain PDB, it gave me a PDB with same atom number on the other chain. For example, I start with chain A and end in chain A and B (B is generated by NCS), while the atom number on chain B is just a duplicate of chain A, starting from 1. This cause error in the subsequent refinement trials. I'm wondering what program can correct this issue. Thanks, Bingfa

PHENIX-Coot problem
by Marcelo Carlos Sousa 08 May '14

08 May '14

I recently updated to CCP4 6.4 including Coot. I updated the path in phenix to point to the coot wrapper startup script. Phenix then correctly starts Coot and both programs are "connected". However regularizations or real space refinement fail with the "Failed to find restraints for: …" message as if the dictionaries are not loading. This does not happen when starting Coot from the terminal or form CCP4i… Any ideas on how to solve this problem? ____________________________________________ Marcelo C.
