Here's the output from the log file from DD initiation to the error:

Initializing Domain Decomposition on 8 nodes
Dynamic load balancing: auto
Will sort the charge groups at every domain (re)decomposition
Initial maximum inter charge-group distances:
    two-body bonded interactions: 4.893 nm, Bond, atoms 8994 8996
  multi-body bonded interactions: 4.893 nm, Angle, atoms 8994 8997
Minimum cell size due to bonded interactions: 5.382 nm

Bonded interactions should normally not occur over such a length. The information printed here points to the culprits. What are these atoms, and why are they bonded if they are so far away?

Fatal error:

Look in the log file for details on the domain decomposition

        I am trying to start a run using domain decomposition on a
        5x5x10 nm box with about 26,000 atoms in it.  I've tried running
        8-16 pp nodes, but gromacs always throws an error saying that
        there is no domain decomposition compatible with this box and a
        minimum cell size of 6.728 nm.  I've tried many values for -dds
        and a few dd vectors, but with no luck.  Does anyone know to get
        domain decomposition working on a rectangular system like this?


    Not without significantly more information.  Please post:

    1. Your Gromacs version
    2. Any DD-related information that is printed to either the log file
    or stdout
    3. Your .mdp file
