Hello all,

I'm hoping to troubleshoot a problem with autobuild and the use of a reference model. Autobuild has been always failing once it gets to the initial refinement step and attempts to add reference model restraints.  I've included my autobuild parameterization. Refinement is where it dies and the contents of LAST.LOG and my error log file are below too.

I'm not sure how to get the reference model file location properly interpreted. I even tried manually moving the reference PDB into the AutoBuild_run_X_/ and TEMP0/ folders as they're generated to no avail.

Best,
Dan
