Hi Francesco,
Tcl stack traces are always terrible, but I'd read the docs:
https://www.ks.uiuc.edu/Research/vmd/plugins/solvate/. The key selection is
meant to occur once per residue of the solvent. MeOH certainly doesn't
apply. I used "name CB", so that the carbon atom is used as the key
selection.
