Dear Users,

I would like to know if anyone may help me understand how to update the
index file.
I am trying to simulate a dna in solution.
I have relaxed a Solvent with attached min.mdp file without problem. in
the second step I was intended to relax SOL + Na  DNA with 20ps.mdp. But
the index file did not work.
I have trying to generate an index file using the file.gro from min.mdp but
it doesn't work.


It is simple to merge solvent and ion groups. See tutorial material or type 'help' at the make_ndx prompt. We can't help you if we don't know what you did.

Below is the obtained error.

Fatal error:
Group NA+SOL referenced in the .mdp file was not found in the index file.
Group names must match either [moleculetype] names or custom index group
names, in which case you must supply an index file to the '-n' option
of grompp.

If you use make_ndx, group names will never contain + signs. Merged groups are joined via _ (underscore), but it sounds like you haven't even gotten that far, given the statement above.
