Actually I check the file newbox.gro in VMD and I found that the phosphate ion instead of being docked to my protein lies somewhere far away from the protein. The docked complex was taken from autodock's docking result. So what could have wrong . I guess this could be the reason for the box being too large .


Sounds like you chose Autodock's undocked complex where the protein and ligand are far apart, but that's more of an Autodock question rather than a Gromacs one.

        Hi,

        I am trying the simulation of a docked complex of my protein .
        While solvating the box using the following command :-
        genbox -cp newbox.gro -cs spc216.gro -p topol.top -o solv.gro


        The processing does not stop and continues to run . Here's the
        output that I got while solvating the box , which is still
        continuing :-

        What have gone wrong for solvation to take this much time on 12
        processors CPU.


    genbox is not parallelized; you can only use 1 CPU.

    You've added 21 million water molecules (yikes!) to the box and
    genbox is trying to remove over 1 million atoms - I'd say your box
    is much too large for a solute of 3620 atoms, by several orders of
    magnitude.  You're probably running out of memory to do this operation.
