Do you have AFITT installed and setup following

Regarding Amber,  Ubuntu is the problem child for many things including
Phenix-Amber. I'm hoping Billy can help here.

Don't think this matters for Amber anymore as it's distributed with Phenix.

Does it crash? Billy probably has the answers here.

Phenix 1.18.2 should be the last major release to use Python2 so you need
to have it available.
