Error in the docking process (overlapping numbering)

[leyra.vazquez]

Hi! I received a email with this error:
There was an inconsistency in your data

Error message

First pdb file contains multiple chains with overlapping numbering: A151 - B151

How can I solve it? Thanks!

As stated in the message, your PDB contains 2 chains that have the same residue ID (here 151).
If you want to use both chain for the docking, renumber the chain B to avoid any overlapping numbering with chain A.
