Mark,
due to hight density the volume of my system have been slightly
increased and during NPT phase I've obtained error
Fatal error:
One of the box vectors has become shorter than twice the cut-off
length or box_yy-|box_zy| or box_zz has become smaller than the cut-off.
I'm using 0.9 for electrostatic and 1.4 for vdw cutofs and the
dimensions of my box was 6.5 3 3 on the initial step and 6.6 3 3.3
before crush :)
I want prevent such expansion of my system by increasing of pressure
and/ or compressibility but I have not found exact sollution yet.
Your system is dangerously small for those cut-offs if your initial
density is not correct for your model physics. Your y and z dimensions
only just contain a full cut-off sphere. You should also make sure you
are following the advice about choice of P-coupling algorithm in manual
3.4.9, and consider using a very small integration time step. I remain
unconvinced by this thread that you have generated a starting
configuration that does not have atomic clashes.

This also was solved by the some extra minimisation steps.
I've forced with another problem :D
During npt equilibration my system have slightly expanded so my
desired volume and density were perturbed.
I've noticed the below options in npt wich could help me
ref_p = 1 1
compressibility = 4.5e-5
i'm using this compressibility value because I'm modelling the
lipid-like environment so I think that I must increase pressure.
Could you remind me the dependence of pressure from density and
volume for liquids ? :)
Your forcefield, simulation cell contents and .mdp settings will
determine the equilibrium density. Whether you need to do anything
depends on whether you've made a statistically significant
post-equilibration measurement of your average density.
Haphazardly increasing the reference pressure for the coupling
will reduce the volume, but now you are simulating at that
pressure. See
http://www.gromacs.org/Documentation/Terminology/Pressure for
background info.

It seems that I've fixed that problem by reduce vdv radii for
Cl during defining of my box
Eventually I've obtained box with the desired density
than I've delete vdvradii.dat for my wor dir
by when I've launched equilibration I've oibtained
Fatal error:
Too many LINCS warnings (1598)
If you know what you are doing you can adjust the lincs
warning threshold in your mdp file
I've never seen this before
I'm using 1.o cutoff for pme and 1.4 for vdv
my LINKS parameters are
; Bond parameters
continuation = no ; first dynamics run
constraint_algorithm = lincs ; holonomic constraints
constraints = all-bonds ; all bonds (even heavy atom-H
bonds) constrained
lincs_iter = 1 ; accuracy of LINCS
lincs_order = 4 ; also related to accuracy
How I could solve it?

Mark,
I've checked only density value
with 500 molecules Ccl4 I have density that is twisely
less that I need ( in accordance to the literature ).
Also I've checked my box visually and found that the box
is not properly tightly packed so I dont know why genbox
didnt add some extra mollecules :(
In other words I wounder to know if there is any way to
add some extra molecules to the pre defined box to make
my system more tighly packed ( to short distance between
existing molecules and place new ones in the new space ) ?

Justin,
Firstly I've created the box of desired size with
only 500 molecules ( I need 1000)
Than I've tried to add extra 200 molecules by
means of Genbox
genbox -cp super_box.gro -ci Ccl4.gro -nmol 200
-o new_solv.gro
but no molecules have been added
Added 0 molecules (out of 200 requested) of Cl4
... then there are no gaps large enough to insert
your molecules. Either make gaps, or check out genbox
-h for advice on defining the radii.
also I've tried
genbox -cp super_box.gro -cp Ccl4.gro -nmol 200
-o new_solv.gro
Two -cp options is not what you want, and -nmol
probably only works with -ci.
but system were crashed with message

Is there any ways to add extra mollecules to the

Yes - but there has to be room for them.
