thank you Sir for your reply.below I provide you .mdp file:

Your .trr files will be huge with these settings. I would only recommend getting such output every step if your system were collapsing within just a few steps, but not in this case. Though, if you have such output, watching the trajectory (provided your workstation doesn't run out of memory) should point to the problem.

I see nothing particularly glaring with the .mdp file that would be causing a problem. You also did not answer my question about EM, so it is still a possibility that the system is insufficiently minimized, but that's just a guess since I don't know.
