New Gromacs User, Many Errors #126

Closed Ntr9999 closed 3 years ago

Ntr9999 commented 3 years ago

Hi,

I am a new Gromacs user and came across your package which has the potential to be very useful to me. Unfortunately, I have had problems using MDPOW. I'm pretty sure Gromacs is installed properly, is my location okay (/usr/local/bin/GMXRC)? MDAnalysis seems to be causing problems too, when I try to install it, both with MDPOW install and individually, something doesn't work, I don't know if this is because there is a new release soon or something. I managed to fudge the packages together using conda and pip for MDA and MDAT respectively, because it is the only thing that worked. The MDAnalysisTests were failing...Most of the time I have 140 errors in 5 seconds and it stopped... then I think I changed my matplotlib version to <3.3 and it fixed it partially (TypeError: use() got an unexpected keyword argument 'warn')? I was able to run the tests through to completion. But then when I try to use the MDPOW package, it tells me I don't gave MDA installed.. even though I could check the version and output 1.0.0. Then somehow I managed to get it to acknowledge the package existed (I cannot reproduce this step idk what I did) When I thought had I finally done it.. I got a syntax error, coming from one of the packages I installed. Unfortunately I do not have the error messages from this last bit, because I changed something and I was unable to reproduce it. I am quite new to computational biology (as I'm sure you can tell), but I would greatly appreciate any help or pointers on what I might have messed up on. I don't know whether all the global packages are messing things up, I have messed around quite a lot with installations on my laptop. I was doing everything here in a conda env though.

This package looks super useful to me but I cannot for the life of me get it to work. Again, thanks for any help, anything will be greatly appreciated, I have spent many hours trying to solve this.

The MDAnalysis problem is known (see https://github.com/MDAnalysis/mdanalysis/issues/2938) and you found the correct workaround.

Working in a conda environment is an excellent idea.

For anything else, please

With installation issues it is important to keep track of everything that you're doing. Copy and paste everything into a text file. In your case, I'd suggest you just start with a fresh conda env with Python 2.7 (Python 3 is not supported, see #84 )

conda create -c conda-forge -n mdpow python=2.7 numpy scipy 'matplotlib<3.3' 'mdanalysis<2' 'mdanalysistests<2' pyyaml
conda activate mdpow  
pip install gromacswrapper
git clone https://github.com/Becksteinlab/MDPOW.git
pip install ./MDPOW

Then see if it installed with

mdpow-equilibrium --help

~The installation instructions say that there's a directly pip-installable version available but at the moment there isn't.~ (EDIT: removed from installation docs). Also, I recommend you install the current development version (from the git repo) because it has a lot of changes/fixes compared to the 0.6.1 release. We wanted to release a 0.7.0 but haven't gotten around to it.

orbeckst commented 3 years ago

I updated the INSTALL instructions, too.

Ntr9999 commented 3 years ago

Thank you for your quick response, I greatly appreciate your assistance. So I started from scratch in a fresh environment, as you suggest: input:

conda create -c conda-forge -n mdpow python=2.7 numpy scipy 'matplotlib<3.3' 'mdanalysis<2' 'mdanalysistests<2' pyyaml
conda activate mdpow
pip install gromacswrapper
git clone https://github.com/Becksteinlab/MDPOW.git
pip install ./MDPOW
mdpow-equilibrium --help

output: (from the mdpow-equilibirum --help command, everything prior was fine I do believe)

This is what has been confusing me, because I have checked to see if MDAnalysis is installed, and it appears as though it is:

python
>>> import MDAnalysis
from MDAnalysis.tests.datafiles import PSF, DCD
print(MDAnalysis.Universe(PSF, DCD))
>>> from MDAnalysis.tests.datafiles import PSF, DCD
>>> print(MDAnalysis.Universe(PSF, DCD))
<Universe with 3341 atoms>
>>> print(MDAnalysis.__version__)
0.20.1
>>>

I also checked to see if mdpow was installed properly and it looks like it is too: python

>>> import mdpow
>>> help(mdpow)

Any idea why it doesn't want to acknowledge the MDAnalysis package?

Thanks again. :)

orbeckst commented 3 years ago

There's an old installation of MDPOW (and possibly other stuff) in /usr/local as indicated by /usr/local/bin/mdpow-equilibrium" and /System/Library/Frameworks/.... Somehow your conda environment is not properly isolated from the rest of your system. Are you setting PYTHONPATH or PATH environment variables anywhere?

Look at the output of

echo "PYTHONPATH:=$PYTHONPATH"
echo "PATH=$PATH"
which python
which mdpow-equilibrium

Your MDAnalysis installation is outdated. This should be version 1.0.0. Where is it installed?

import MDAnalysis
print(MDAnalysis.__file__)

should be under your anaconda env.

EDIT: See below – installation of 0.20.1 instead of 1.0.0 is a bug https://github.com/MDAnalysis/mdanalysis/issues/3105

Ntr9999 commented 3 years ago

Okay, so I restarted my terminal and went back into the environment and that error no longer occurs (I get the correct -help output).

echo "PYTHONPATH:=$PYTHONPATH"
echo "PATH=$PATH"
which python
which mdpow-equilibrium
PYTHONPATH:=
PATH=/Users/mark/opt/anaconda3/envs/mdpow/bin:/Users/mark/opt/anaconda3/condabin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin
/Users/mark/opt/anaconda3/envs/mdpow/bin/python
/Users/mark/opt/anaconda3/envs/mdpow/bin/mdpow-equilibrium

/Users/mark/opt/anaconda3/envs/mdpow/lib/python2.7/site-packages/MDAnalysis/__init__.pyc

Everything looks good with those locations now? So I think that problem with MDAnalysis not being found has solved.

However, my version is still 0.20.1

print(MDAnalysis.__version__)
0.20.1

Why would this be the case? Thanks again.

orbeckst commented 3 years ago

Maybe 

conda update -n mdpow mdanalysis mdanalysistests

?

orbeckst commented 3 years ago

Btw, what operating system are you running?

Can you show the output from starting python (eg mine is 

Python 2.7.15 | packaged by conda-forge | (default, Mar  5 2020, 14:58:04)
[GCC Clang 9.0.1 ] on darwin
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.

just to see if there's a weird combo of O/S & python for which for some reason no 1.0.0 conda package is available.)

orbeckst commented 3 years ago

And run

conda list mdanalysis
# packages in environment at ~/anaconda3/envs/mdpow:
#
# Name                    Version                   Build  Channel

Ntr9999 commented 3 years ago

I have just realised why it was outputting that error about MDA not found. When I source my gromacs with "source /usr/local/bin/GMXRC" and then try and run: mdpow-equilibrium --help, it outputs the error.

It only works when I don't source my gromacs...

Do you think the location of my gromacs is causing errors? because surely I am going to need to source it at some point :/

orbeckst commented 3 years ago

... oops, I have 0.20.1 too!

I'll have to look into this on MDAnalysis's side.

I guess for right now, 0.20.1 should work... (fingers crossed, it's not super-essential for MDPOW IIRC.)

orbeckst commented 3 years ago

Your source GMXRC changes PATH. In this case it picks up your old installation.

Uninstall your old MDPOW installation (always a good idea).

I'd also install GROMACS in a dedicated directory that's not on the normal PATH, e.g. /opt/gromacs/2020.2 or similar.

Ntr9999 commented 3 years ago

Okay, thank you so much for your help! I will reinstall my GROMACS to a new directory now.

orbeckst commented 3 years ago

I opened https://github.com/MDAnalysis/mdanalysis/issues/3105 for the 0.20.1 version of MDAnalysis.

Ntr9999 commented 3 years ago

Okay, so I reinstalled my gromacs and I am able to source it and run the -help mdpow command.

However, when doing the tutorial, I run into error messages that were encountered here: https://github.com/Becksteinlab/MDPOW/issues/96 after running this: export GW_START_LOGGING=True mdpow-equilibrium --solvent water benzene/benzene.yml

I encounter these errors (very similar to that in the previous thread I linked)

To preemptively answer some questions you may ask (similar to the thread I linked): I find it hard to believe that it hasn't sourced properly, especially since I was able to do the equilibration step. which mdrun yields: mdrun not found

which gmx yields: /usr/local/opt/gromacs/bin/gmx

DESCRIPTION

gmx mdrun is the main computational chemistry engine within GROMACS.
Obviously, it performs Molecular Dynamics simulations, but it can also perform
Stochastic Dynamics, Energy Minimization, test particle insertion or
(re)calculation of energies. Normal mode analysis is another option. In this
case mdrun builds a Hessian matrix from single conformation. For usual Normal
Modes-like calculations, make sure that the structure provided is properly
energy-minimized. The generated matrix can be diagonalized by gmx nmeig.

The mdrun program reads the run input file (-s) and distributes the topology
over ranks if needed. mdrun produces at least four output files. A single log
file (-g) is written. The trajectory file (-o), contains coordinates,
velocities and optionally forces. The structure file (-c) contains the
coordinates and velocities of the last step. The energy file (-e) contains
energies, the temperature, pressure, etc, a lot of these things are also
printed in the log file. Optionally coordinates can be written to a compressed
trajectory file (-x).

The option -dhdl is only used when free energy calculation is turned on.

Running mdrun efficiently in parallel is a complex topic, many aspects of
which are covered in the online User Guide. You should look there for
practical advice on using many of the options available in mdrun.

ED (essential dynamics) sampling and/or additional flooding potentials are
switched on by using the -ei flag followed by an .edi file. The .edi file can
be produced with the make_edi tool or by using options in the essdyn menu of
the WHAT IF program. mdrun produces a .xvg output file that contains
projections of positions, velocities and forces onto selected eigenvectors.

When user-defined potential functions have been selected in the .mdp file the
-table option is used to pass mdrun a formatted table with potential
functions. The file is read from either the current directory or from the
GMXLIB directory. A number of pre-formatted tables are presented in the GMXLIB
dir, for 6-8, 6-9, 6-10, 6-11, 6-12 Lennard-Jones potentials with normal
Coulomb. When pair interactions are present, a separate table for pair
interaction functions is read using the -tablep option.

When tabulated bonded functions are present in the topology, interaction
functions are read using the -tableb option. For each different tabulated
interaction type used, a table file name must be given. For the topology to
work, a file name given here must match a character sequence before the file
extension. That sequence is: an underscore, then a 'b' for bonds, an 'a' for
angles or a 'd' for dihedrals, and finally the matching table number index
used in the topology. Note that, these options are deprecated, and in future
will be available via grompp.

The options -px and -pf are used for writing pull COM coordinates and forces
when pulling is selected in the .mdp file.

The option -membed does what used to be g_membed, i.e. embed a protein into a
membrane. This module requires a number of settings that are provided in a
data file that is the argument of this option. For more details in membrane
embedding, see the documentation in the user guide. The options -mn and -mp
are used to provide the index and topology files used for the embedding.

The option -pforce is useful when you suspect a simulation crashes due to too
large forces. With this option coordinates and forces of atoms with a force
larger than a certain value will be printed to stderr. It will also terminate
the run when non-finite forces are present.

Checkpoints containing the complete state of the system are written at regular
intervals (option -cpt) to the file -cpo, unless option -cpt is set to -1. The
previous checkpoint is backed up to state_prev.cpt to make sure that a recent
state of the system is always available, even when the simulation is
terminated while writing a checkpoint. With -cpnum all checkpoint files are
kept and appended with the step number. A simulation can be continued by
reading the full state from file with option -cpi. This option is intelligent
in the way that if no checkpoint file is found, GROMACS just assumes a normal
run and starts from the first step of the .tpr file. By default the output
will be appending to the existing output files. The checkpoint file contains
checksums of all output files, such that you will never loose data when some
output files are modified, corrupt or removed. There are three scenarios with
-cpi:

* no files with matching names are present: new output files are written

* all files are present with names and checksums matching those stored in the
checkpoint file: files are appended

* otherwise no files are modified and a fatal error is generated

With -noappend new output files are opened and the simulation part number is
added to all output file names. Note that in all cases the checkpoint file
itself is not renamed and will be overwritten, unless its name does not match
the -cpo option.

With checkpointing the output is appended to previously written output files,
unless -noappend is used or none of the previous output files are present
(except for the checkpoint file). The integrity of the files to be appended is
verified using checksums which are stored in the checkpoint file. This ensures
that output can not be mixed up or corrupted due to file appending. When only
some of the previous output files are present, a fatal error is generated and
no old output files are modified and no new output files are opened. The
result with appending will be the same as from a single run. The contents will
be binary identical, unless you use a different number of ranks or dynamic
load balancing or the FFT library uses optimizations through timing.

With option -maxh a simulation is terminated and a checkpoint file is written
at the first neighbor search step where the run time exceeds -maxh*0.99 hours.
This option is particularly useful in combination with setting nsteps to -1
either in the mdp or using the similarly named command line option (although
the latter is deprecated). This results in an infinite run, terminated only
when the time limit set by -maxh is reached (if any) or upon receiving a
signal.

Interactive molecular dynamics (IMD) can be activated by using at least one of
the three IMD switches: The -imdterm switch allows one to terminate the
simulation from the molecular viewer (e.g. VMD). With -imdwait, mdrun pauses
whenever no IMD client is connected. Pulling from the IMD remote can be turned
on by -imdpull. The port mdrun listens to can be altered by -imdport.The file
pointed to by -if contains atom indices and forces if IMD pulling is used.

gromacs.log mdpow.log

Ntr9999 commented 3 years ago

The user in the linked thread said she had installed the package on her desktop and that was causing the errors? I think I built gromacs from my desktop, but I source it from /opt/gromacs/.

Any guidance you can provide will be greatly appreciated. Thanks

orbeckst commented 3 years ago

@Ntr9999 , it is possible that GROMACS 2020 does not allow you to start a simulation with -cpi -append (see PR #127 and below).

@VOD555 does this error sound familiar to you — have you been running MDPOW with GROMACS 2020?

orbeckst commented 3 years ago

@Ntr9999 could you please try out the code in PR #127 and see if it fixes the problem?

cd MDPOW
git fetch --all
git checkout -b no-append origin/no-append
# then install this version, e.g.,
pip install --upgrade .

Let me know if this worked.

Ntr9999 commented 3 years ago

I do believe it worked! Was it because of the gromacs version?

mdpow.checkpoint: INFO checkpoint: MD_NPT_run mdpow.run : INFO Equilibrium simulation phase complete, use 'benzene/water.simulation' to continue.

However the next step has an mdrun error too, would you recommend that I downgrade my gromacs to one of the known supported versions?

Do you think this is because of my gromacs installation or my computer or just that the simulation box is too small? I would try to run some fixes, but because the script is automated I don't want to mess things up. Thank you very much.

This syntax with -append was correct with previous versions of Gromacs (~4.5-4.6), but is not accepted anymore by more recent versions (e.g. 2020).

However the next step has an mdrun error too, would you recommend that I downgrade my gromacs to one of the known supported versions?

No, you should not downgrade Gromacs, we should make it work with the more recent versions.

I've got the same error some time ago, which was reported in #119.

Do you think this is because of my gromacs installation or my computer or just that the simulation box is too small? I would try to run some fixes, but because the script is automated I don't want to mess things up. Thank you very much.

For the EM step, Gromacs uses all threads available on your computer. In some cases, the number of threads is not compatible with the default domain decomposition, and currently there is no way to control it. Solving #119 should fix this.

In my case, a workaround was to run the simulation on another machine, with a different number of threads (8 instead of 20) which was compatible with the default domain decomposition.

I see, thank you very much for your input.

Ntr9999 commented 3 years ago

In the .yml file, there is a section, shown below: `mdrun: stepout: 1000

how often to report progress (-stepout)

verbose: True
     # report progress verbosely (True is -v)
nice: 19
     # nicel level
maxthreads: None
     # maximum number of threads (-nt), 0 or None lets mdrun automatically choose`

Can't I change max threads here, or is this for something else?

iorga commented 3 years ago

You should definitely try to set this maxthreads option to 2 or even 1. I don't remember exactly what I've got when I tried it, quite a long time ago. I think it applies only to the MD_relaxed and MD_NPT simulations (when run locally), not to the EM step, but I'm not sure. Please check it.

You're right, it doesn't apply to the EM step.

Hi again 😫.

I'm trying to run the package on quite a small unusual molecule and I believe that my .itp file is correct, however, when I run:

grompp_qtot() failed. See warning and screen output for clues.

I assume grumpp_qtot is failing because of these errors, or should I change my qtot to an integer, I didn't think this was actually essential.

I was also under the impression that mymolecule.itp was incorporated automatically by the package to the top of the topology with #include. Or am I required to update the force field files myself? If so, are these the ones in the MDPOW directory, or in the gromacs installation in /opt/gromacs/?

EDIT (@orbeckst): formatting

Reopening — sorry, PR #127 only solved the append problem.

orbeckst commented 3 years ago

@Ntr9999 did you manage to run the benzene example? Ideally I'd like to hear that this all worked before looking into anything else.

If the maxthreads issue #119 is a problem you can do one of two things: make the box much bigger (so that Gromacs is happy to run it on more cores), by increasing the min distance, or try out the code in branch emin-maxthreads (PR #128).

Can you open a new issue for your own data so that we can deal with different issues in self contained blocks, please?

I didn't run the FEP, but I guess you're right in that it makes sense to check it works first. I'll do this asap.

I think you made a slight error in the code, when I remove the comma at the end of the line it works.

I will do this yes, my apologies.

Ntr9999 commented 3 years ago

It worked and gave me reasonable numerical values, but outputted errors at the end.

For the last step, mdpow-pow benzene, I got the values and output files (energies.txt, pow.txt and DeltaA.png - is there only supposed to be DeltaA.png for the octanol step? Is there a way I can get it for both?), but there was some erroring afterwards referring to Matlab.

Output:

Thanks again for the assistance.

Overall it looks as if the simulation aspects are working but the analysis stage is broken. Admittedly, I don't think that we have been using the analysis scripts a lot lately (@iorga @VOD555 ??); I think we mostly wrote code based on alchemlyb. Our recent paper

S. Fan, B. I. Iorga, and O. Beckstein, “Prediction of octanol-water partition coefficients for the SAMPL6- log P molecules using molecular dynamics simulations with OPLS-AA, AMBER and CHARMM force fields,” Journal of Computer-Aided Molecular Design, vol. 34, pp. 543–560, 2020. doi: 10.1007/s10822-019-00267-z

has more details (and input files at https://github.com/Becksteinlab/SAMPL6_logP_data).

DeltaA should contain plots for water and octanol... IIRC.

I don't think that the backend error is responsible for the crash... but would need to look into it (and it shouldn't happen).

If you raise a new issue for this particular problem then hopefully someone can get to it. Include as much information to reproduce — the more we can copy and paste instructions the more likely someone will attempt to reproduce it.

Thank you again for any assistance you provide; I appreciate that these questions may seem very trivial an experienced user.

None of the questions are trivial — it's just that MDPOW is not very polished and it's hard to keep it up-to-date. When we use it "it just works™" (most of the time...). We definitely would like others to be able to use it so thank you for working with us.

Ntr9999 commented 3 years ago

I have created two new issues, in order to keep things compartmentalised. https://github.com/Becksteinlab/MDPOW/issues/129 https://github.com/Becksteinlab/MDPOW/issues/130 This issue, which was originally regarding installation, can now be closed.
