[Chimera-users] Problem with autodock vina in chimera

[Don Gabo]

Also recently I'm having trouble, I was using AutoDock Vina just fine last
month and this week I started using it and I have to repeat the dcking
procedure twice coz' the first one doesnt wok, also the docking result is
all wrong, not what it used to be. Would it be a matter of Software
updating?
