Hi Justin
Below is my nvt.mdp (nvt equilibration) file.i think probably you can
have look at it and its not such big.

You should never run MD with flexible water. All the water models included in

If you're not using constraints, then a 2-fs timestep might be too large. If
you encounter any later instability, this is likely the cause.

regarding the plot i too know that one should use Xmgrace to plot. In
the pressure Vs time(lysozyme tutorial) you have got two graphs. i to
got the pressure Vs time (black line graph) my question is how to get
the running average ( red line) and plot?. does i need any command to
get the running average?. any help is highly appreciated.

Hi justin
I found what went wrong and i corrected my mdp file.now the
system equilibrated to the desired temperature 300 K (plus r
minus 30 K) is this ok?
This is impossible to assess without seeing your .mdp settings. A
fluctuation of 10% is probably fine.
Apart from that i want to know how you plot the average running
pressure and density in your tutorial for lyzosyme (redline). i
just want to do that for DCE. any help is highly appreciated.

Without seeing your .mdp file, there's no way to know. The
fluctuation does seem too high, though, unless your system
really is
just that unstable. Are other properties converged - potential
energy, density, etc? What type of ensemble are you using?

Dear Justin
what corrections i should make to ffoplsaan.itp to
make it
correct. what i should give instead of CAB and CLAA?.
You must use atom types, not names. Unfortunately, you've
chosen to
use atom names, which are also types, which makes all
of this
quite
confusing if you're not sure what you're doing.
You defined two new atom types - opls_966 (CAB) and
opls_967
(CLAA),
which are the only indicators you are allowed to use if
introducing
new types. Thus, references to atom names (CAC, CLAD)
will
generate
fatal errors.
i copied the .rtp .atp .itp files from
usr/local/gromacs/share/gromacs/top to my working
directory and
added these parameters to the corresponding files.
what
you mean
is should i need to add these parameters to the source
directory
( usr/local/gromacs/share/gromacs/top)?
Your topology needs to be consistent with whatever
files need
to be
included. By default, Gromacs checks the working
directory first,
but if you've moved to a new (sub)directory to carry
out further
steps, the grompp will not find your modified files,
but will
instead locate only the default force field files in
$GMXLIB.
Either keep all your work in one directory (which can get
messy),
or make use of the "include" keyword in the .mdp file.
Any
directory specified there will be searched after the
working
directory, but before $GMXLIB.

You shouldn't be using atom names in the [*types]
directives.
What
you should be using are the interpolated types from
ffoplsaanb.itp,
thus you have only utilized opls_966 (CAB) and
opls_967 (CLAA).
*ffoplsaanb.itp*
opls_966 CAB 6 14.02700 0.227
A 3.98000e-01
4.76976e-01 ; CH2 of DCE
opls_967 CLAA 17 35.45300 -0.227
A 3.16000e-01
0.20920e+01 ; Cl of DCE
*dce.pdb*
HETATM 1 CLAA DCE 1 6.300
-2.280 1.360 1.00
20.00 CL
HETATM 2 CAB DCE 1 5.060
-3.540 1.500 1.00
20.00 C
HETATM 3 CAC DCE 1 4.320

20.00 C
HETATM 4 CLAD DCE 1 3.270 -2.350
-0.210 1.00
20.00 CL
After adding all this, when i run grompp i
get the
error as
*fatal error Unknown bond_atomtype CLAA*.
can any
one tell me
why this happens?.
Have you been sure to #include the correct
(modified)
force field
files? That is, if you made a local copy and
adjusted
them,
these
won't be the files that pdb2gmx will #include
by default.
