Hi

You said:

ffbonded.itp.
I let the lines empty and I got an error at the first grompp, before energy 
minimization. grompp missed this empty lines. Here a part out of the errors:

ERROR 28 [file topol.top, line 229]:
   No default Angle types


ERROR 29 [file topol.top, line 233]:
   No default Improper Dih. types

My system is a cofactor, the force field is CHARMM27, parametrized with data 
out of a supporting information of a group that determined this parameters for 
my cofactor by experiments and quantum mechanical calculations. In 
residuetypes.dat I defined ISO Isoalloxazin. In the force field order I gave 
all informations (I guess).

What could be the problem?

I am able to complete the topol.top file by hand, but I really like to know 
what is the problem here.


A sequence of atoms in a topology (defined by atom type, not name or number) is mapped back to parameters in ffbonded.itp. If no suitable parameters are found, you get the error messages. In a normal topology (.top or .itp) for most force fields, the parameters are not explicitly stated because they are looked up in this manner. If you're introducing something new or overriding existing force field parameters, you need to explicitly include them in the topology or add them to the appropriate directive in ffbonded.itp.

Thanks for help

Hi

In some lines the equilibrium angle and the force constant is missing.I give 
you an example:


The [ angles ] section is build like

[ angles ]
;  ai    aj    ak funct            c0            c1            c2            c3
     2     1    19     1    123.75     250.00
      1     2    3      1    123.75     250.00
      1     2    4      1    117.47     230.00



And my pdb2gmx output is for example something like

[ angles ]
;  ai    aj    ak funct            c0            c1            c2            c3
      2     1    19     1    123.75     250.00
      1     2     3      1
      1     2     4      1    117.47     230.00



So you have a complete topology and one that has missing parameters, or are you 
adapting an incomplete topology?

What force field are you using?  What is the system?  For a normal protein system, most 
force fields (all except Gromos, if I recall) produce bonded directives with no 
parameters; they are looked up from ffbonded.itp and not stated explicitly, so 
"missing" parameters are completely normal and not problematic.  If you're 
dealing with something nonstandard and you've had to create .rtp entries, you'll need to 
post that information for diagnostic purposes.

In principle, there's nothing wrong with any of this.  The blank lines will be 
filled in with existing parameters from [angletypes] in ffbonded.itp.  These 
parameters are only overwritten if explicitly present in the topology.  If 
there is a bonded interaction referenced in the topology that does not exist in 
ffbonded.itp, grompp will fail with a fatal error.
