Thank you Justin
but I end up with a new error. now in the insert.pdp file I have a molecule which I need to add 4 copy of that inside the solute.pdb
genbox_d -ci insert.pdb -nmol 4 -cp solute.pdb

but it gave me:

Fatal error:
more then one residue in insert molecules
program terminated


Then you have two options:

1. Use the development (git) version of the code, which I believe can now deal with multi-residue molecules.
2. Use editconf to position all the components of your system.

You could, I suppose, hack your "insert.pdb" to contain one residue (i.e., through renaming and renumbering) and then convert it back, but that sounds like a mess. Probably #2 is the easiest.
