Novice assistance
Posted: Mon Oct 06, 2008 9:17 pm
This is probably a stupid problem so please bear with me as I'm a novice when it comes to Hippo.
I downloaded both the Windows and Linux version of Hippo and am having difficulty running the executable file. I get the same error for both versions "Illegal instruction". I'm not sure what this means.
I think I've followed the manual correctly (but perhaps not as this is my first time using Hippo). I've run the following:
./hippo hippo_input.txt
The error I get is "Illegal instruction". The text file (hippo_input.txt) is simple:
mode: MD simulation
input type: PDB
input file: helix.pdb
max_mcsteps: 1000
I even tried:
./hippo
with the thought that if it worked that it would just hang regardless of the command options afterward. I still get the same error mentioned above.
Am I doing something wrong or could it be that the executable is looking for library paths that don't exist or are different on my computer?
If it helps I'm using an old Redhat linux computer (with a 2.6.9-22.ELsmp kernel).
Many thanks in advance for your help!
