It sounds like you wouldn't be able to fetch anything from the PDB.<br> <br> In Chimera, I can fetch that entry and others from the PDB without problem. I also tried turning off my internet connection first to see what error message results, but it is a different message from what you reported. You could try using Help... Report a Bug in the Chimera menu and describe how you got the message, and include your email address if you want feedback.<br> <br> To be able to go through the tutorial now, however, you could just go to the PDB web site,<br> <<a href="http://www.rcsb.org/pdb/home/home.do" target="_blank">http://www.rcsb.org/pdb/home/home.do</a>><br> search for entry 1d86, download the PDB file (text) to your computer in some location where you will be able to find it in a file browser, then open the file as a local file from Chimera (use File... Open in the menu and browse to its location). Then proceed with the tutorial.<br> <br> I hope this helps,<br> Elaine<br> -----<br> Elaine C.
