Dear all I want to simulate a box of water (2*2*2 nm with 1401 molecules). Is there difference between using a model for water molecules and importing this molecule from other programs(such as nwchem)? I want to do a small simulation and it is not important to treat water molecules explicitly. I used a water.pdb file to generate the box with this command:
*gmx_mpi insert-molecules -ci WATER.pdb -nmol 3000 -box 2 2 2 -o water_box.gro* ... .... Added 467 molecules (out of 3000 requested) Writing generated configuration to water_box.gro Output configuration contains 1401 atoms in 934 residues gcq#247: "There's Nothing We Can't Fix, 'coz We Can Do It in the Mix" (Indeep) after that I want to create topol.gro file, but I got an error ? *gmx_mpi pdb2gmx -f water_box.gro -o water_box2.gro -ignh* :-) GROMACS - gmx pdb2gmx, VERSION 5.1.2 (-: GROMACS is written by: Emile Apol Rossen Apostolov Herman J.C.
