[Chimera-users] Minimize hydrogens in water molecules

[Eric Pettersen]

Hi Francesca,
	Run the minimization again, but when the error dialog comes up click "Report Bug" and attach your structure file to the bug report.  That will allow me to investigate this problem.

Minimization does not know how to deal with residues with incomplete backbones.  Your only option is to completely delete any residue with an incomplete backbone, which might not be appropriate if the residue is near the binding site.
