Oh, I see it now.
Even if I include all the needed terms in one file forcefield.itp, I need to create files separated, using file name ffnonbonded.itp and ffbonded.itp?

The #include keyword literally means "copy and paste the contents of this file
here."  If those files don't exist, then nothing gets copied and you're missing
all of the parameters from the force field.

Thank you very much

        Hi, Justin:
            Thank you for the reply.
            But I am not sure for gromacs 4.5.4. since for gromacs
        3.3.1, I only need one itp file for my forcefield. Should I just
        split this forcefield.itp file into two different part, and
        write a new forcefield.itp which says "#include ffnonbonded.itp,
        #included ffbonded.itp"?


    That's all the forcefield.itp file has ever done, really.  It
    defines the default interaction types for the system and #includes
    the relevant bonded and nonbonded parameters.  Maybe that's what
    your forcefield.itp file does, but in the file listing, you did not
    have ffnonbonded.itp and ffbonded.itp.  These files are where grompp
    gets the bulk of its information and without them will be hopelessly
    broken.  All required input files are described in the manual,
    Chapter 5.

            Is there any suggestion how I can do that properly?
            Thank you very much.

               Hi, everyone:
                   I am using a forcefield PACE(modified) from my friends.
                   Since there was a small program generating some dihedral
               terms based on gromacs3.3.1, I need to use gromacs 3.3.1 to
               generate the gromacs file.
                  Previously, for the npt/nvt, I was also using grompp
        (gromacs
               3.3.1) to generate the simulation file and run it in gromacs
               4.5.4, it works perfectly. However, I met some problem: since
               the pulling (constant velocity or force)in gromacs 3.3.1 is
               totally different from gromacs 4.5.4, I cannot use the same
               method, so I turned to grompp 4.5.4.
                  However, I met the same problem of "atomtype Nr not found
               each time". It is the N of Arg in this force field
                  I have already created the folder in the
               /home/yy58/gromacs/share/____gromacs/top folder and tried
        gmx2pdb
               in gromacs 4.5.4, which can create the gro file and top
        file (so
               as I see, it seems the adding of the force field is
        correct.).
                  The folders PACE_13_NAMD.ff/ has the following files:
aminoacids.c.tdb aminoacids.n.tdb atomtypes.atp forcefield.itp
               aminoacids.ddb    aminoacids.r2b    cg216water.gro
         watermodels.dat
               aminoacids.hdb    aminoacids.rtp    cgWater.itp


                I already included the itp file in the top file:

               in the top file, it indeed has:

                  ; Include forcefield parameters
               #include "PACE_13_NAMD.ff/forcefield.____itp"

               Also in the forcefield.itp file, it has:

               Nr           16.000      0.000      A       0.0      0.0

               Similarly, in the file atomtypes.atp, aminoacids.rtp, the
               definition of Nr also exists correctly (I have checked it and
               also use grompp to run it in gromacs3.3.1, which does not
        have
               any trouble).

               Right now, I am really confused what is going on, could
        someone
               please help me with this?


           You are missing the ffnonbonded.itp and ffbonded.itp files, which
           causes your force field to break.  The ffnonbonded.itp file
        is the
           source of this particular error, since that is where grompp
        looks to
           find the nonbonded parameters for each atom type (among other
        things).
