MSI2LMP ERROR

Hi Lammps users,

When I use msi2lmp tools, I get cannot open the .car file

How to fix it?

My .car file and .mdf file is in D:\simulation\SIMULATION\input-to-lammps

Have set the MSI2LMP_LIBRARY too.

D:\simulation\SIMULATION\input-to-lammps>msi2lmp.exe -gaussian -c II -f cff91

Forcefield: Class II
Forcefield file name: C:\Program Files\LAMMPS 64-bit 20160322\frc_files;C:\Prog
ram Files\LAMMPS 64-bit 20160408\frc_files\cff91.frc
Output is recentered around geometrical center

Cannot open -gaussian.car

Thanks,

so what *is* the name of your .car file?

the command line you used signals msi2lmp, that it would be
-gaussian.car, but that is obviously not the case. hence the error.

PEBCAC!

please study the README file for msi2lmp again
