Dear gmx experts,

I am having problem doing MD run for a hydrocarbon system. The system contains a stack of Hexane molecules using editconf. The distance between molecuels in the box is more than 30 A. I am wondering why I get large forces (system is blowing up) with this distance!. (LINCS warning) with dt=0.002
Program mdrun, VERSION 4.0.7
Source code file: constr.c, line: 136

Fatal error:
Too many LINCS warnings (1053)
If you know what you are doing you can adjust the lincs warning threshold in your mdp file
or set the environment variable GMX_MAXCONSTRWARN to -1,
but normally it is better to fix the problem


It seems Fmax, Epot values are reasonable. . In the list archive I read

I would say they are not.

<snip>

Steepest Descents converged to Fmax < 1000 in 30 steps
Potential Energy  =  4.76092783832156e+05
Maximum force     =  9.86600079729483e+02 on atom 3115
Norm of force     =  5.33725886931530e+02

You have a reasonable force, but your potential energy is large and positive, indicative strong repulsive forces in your system.

define              =  -DPOSRES

What are you restraining, and what purpose does it serve?
