Dear Justin,
Please check the atom section of "toppar_all36_lipid_cholesterol.str" file
that I pasted below.

* Toppar stream file for cholesterol.  Stream following reading of
* top_all36_lipid.rtf  and par_all36_lipid.rtf

I see where the problem is. Note that this file says "Submitted for publication," but it was actually published 10 years ago. This stream file is outdated. The CHL1 model I included in the CHARMM36 distribution is the current one, which uses CRL1 for C3 and a series of NBFIXes described in the 2012 paper by Lim et al. (full reference in forcefield.doc).

You can get the latest, updated CHARMM36 force field files from http://mackerell.umaryland.edu/charmm_ff.shtml#charmm

Dear Justin,
Yes, the problem is with the blank line at the end of atomtypes.atp. Now
its working fine. I have added the missing dihedral types from other
sources.


Thanks, I will fix that.

  I have compared the cholesterol CHARMM parameters that are converted to
gromacs format and original parameters from
"toppar_all36_lipid_cholesterol.str" file available in CHARMM website. I
found some variations in the atom types.

For eg., The atom type of  C3 atom from sterol ring in cholesterol is CTL1
in CHARMM whereas it is CG311 in charmm36-Nov2014.ff.


Which residue are you looking at?  There is no C3 atom with type CTL1 in
that stream file.  In any case, CG311 and CTL1 have identical parameters
(see ffnonbonded.itp) since CG311 is used for CGenFF model compounds, which
in the case of lipids, were just ported over and given unique types.
Anything with a "G" as the second letter in the atom type is from CGenFF,
indicating "general" to differentiate them from the main CHARMM types.
