Problem with fix rigid command

Dear all,

Just running a simple test, when I tried to run the below code with the latest LAMMPS version (11Nov13), the simulation was terminated by the: ERROR: Invalid fix style (…/modify.cpp:714). This error is related with the command: fix 1 sample rigid single. However, with an older LAMMPS version (15Jan10) the same code run well. The detailed running process can be found in attached document. Therefore, I am wondering is there a bug with the fix rigid command for the latest LAMMPS version, or there is something wrong within my code? Thanks.

Best regards,
Junjie

Hi,

have you built your lammps executable with RIGID package?

Hi Oleg,

I didn’t notice that RIGID has become a separated package, thanks for your hint!

Hi Oleg,

I didn't notice that RIGID has become a separated package, thanks for your
hint!

...and here is a bonus hint: whenever you update LAMMPS, have a look
at this page
http://lammps.sandia.gov/bug.html
and search for entries labeled with "BACKWARD COMPATIBILITY", those
usually describe things that have changed in incompatible ways (and if
you notice something that is not mentioned but should, let us know)

ciao,
