You are rearranging the deck chairs on a ship that is already sinking. You've been given good advice from several people - see http://www.gromacs.org/Documentation/Terminology/Blowing_Up#Diagnosing_an_Unstable_System. There's nothing more to be said if you don't go and follow the advice there. You've got a complex piece of machinery that isn't working for unknown reasons. Diagnosing what is wrong is hard, but only you have the information, motivation and resources to do it.


step 131500, will finish Thu Sep 29 01:54:20 2011imb F  2%
step 131520: Water molecule starting at atom 6981 can not be settled.
Check for bad contacts and/or reduce the timestep if appropriate.

Fatal error:
1 particles communicated to PME node 0 are more than 2/3 times the cut-off out of the domain decomposition cell of their charge group in dimension x.
This usually means that your system is not well equilibrated.


Since there are large no. of water molecules after 6981 , it means that it is not happening because oh some interaction with phosphate ion.

There is no correlation between atom number and geometric proximity to a suspect molecule. You have to go and look at the initial structure and the trajectory.

What shall be done to rectify this ??

    You really need to be asking more questions, looking at the
    trajectory file / frames when it blows up, and determining what is
    actually going on by yourself.

    it's showing error that certain atoms cannot be settled and these
    atoms are of solvent molecules i.e. Water

    phsophate ion and the charge of the system was neutralized by
    adding 6 sodium ions . After minimizing , I equilibrated for 500
    ps but I got "LINCS" error around 300ps.  It's happening due to
    the addition of phosphate ions as I have simulated my protein in
    water earlier without any problem. During nvt quilibration the
    temperature coupling settings were for Protein and Non protein
    groups. Do I have to make groups for Protein and water_ion. Please
    comment??
