<p>The <code>target</code> variable, which is set to the first part of the sequence file name, should be <code>sequence</code> according to your given command line. However the error message thinks it is <code>c600m2-tail-before-lysin-sequence</code>. Have you edited the command line for simplicity?</p>

<p>I'm a little worried about the floating point errors, which are almost certainly from CNS as there are 3 CNS calls and the error shows up 3 times. I would test your CNS installation to see if everything is okay - maybe try some examples from <a href="https://www.mrc-lmb.cam.ac.uk/public/xtal/doc/cns/cns_1.3/getting_started/frame.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">their website</a>. An error there would explain why no output is generated.</p>

<p>You can ignore any errors below line 5 of the above program output for now, as they are follow-on errors. In particular the question title isn't the 'real' error here, the real error is that no PDB files are generated on <a href="https://github.com/psipred/DMPfold/blob/master/run_dmpfold.sh#L160" rel="nofollow noreferrer">line 160</a>.</p>

<p>By the way, I wouldn't use <code>10 500</code> as parameters for iteration number and number of models. It will take ages to run. I'd just use the defaults (omit the arguments), which we find gives good results.</p>

<p>Finally, I'll point out that the <a href="https://github.com/psipred/DMPfold" rel="nofollow noreferrer">DMPfold repository</a> has an issue tracker where you can raise any future issues. Though we may as well finish debugging this one here since we've started!</p>

Ok, I cant ask more questions on this thread as stated by the person below. So, I will be asking next questions in another thread with title "DMPfold: is it suitable to get 5000 models to compare with rosetta".

Please [edit] your question and show us line 177 of `/media/Deepak/NPRP10/softwares/dmpfold/DMPfold-master/run_dmpfold.sh`. As you can see in the error message, the script is looking for files named `c600m2-tail-before-lysin-sequence_[1-9]*.pdb` and it is doing so on line 177. What is this script? Where did you get it? Could it have hard-coded input files? All of your errors are about missing files.

The `target` variable, which is set to the first part of the sequence file name, should be `sequence` according to your given command line. However the error message thinks it is `c600m2-tail-before-lysin-sequence`. Have you edited the command line for simplicity?
