using the pair style comb3 in windows parallel

All,

I am attempting to run a simulation with the comb3 pair style using the most recent windows parallel executable. I keep getting an “invalid pair style” error, this happens also if I try the windows serial executable. I tried my own input script, but then I decided to simplify things and even attempted the input script provided in the examples “in.comb3” and it got the same error. I have the ffield.comb3 and the lib.comb3 files in the same directory as the input script.

Any reason why the windows parallel/serial executables would not recognize comb3?

Type “lmp_EXE” -h and see if comb3 is listed under the pair style. If not, you can probably download the newest pre-compiled executable.

​did you download the single executable or the windows installer package?
which version number does it show?

the windows executables from the sandia download page are very old and thus
predate the release of COMB3.
