This is the strange thing, genion treats only tpr files, and not gro files with 
solvated states


The .tpr file fed to genion is that of a solvated .gro file, and a .tpr file is necessary so that genion knows the connectivity of each molecule. That's how it removes whole molecules at a time. If you haven't used genion properly (or at all), then you can expect a problematic result. See basic tutorials if this workflow is unclear.

The job of genion is to replace water molecules with ions. There is no way that
grompp can turn one into the other; you would get a fatal error about
mismatching names and/or numbers of atoms in the case of a flawed topology. I
suggest you verify the contents of your topology (which should have been
automatically updated by genion to be correct) and any output from grompp to
make sure you're not ignoring any additional problems. Then check that your
interpretation of atom numbers is correct. I find it extremely unlikely that
mdrun is complaining about trying to SETTLE an ion (it's topologically 
impossible).

What does your *.mdp file look like? Its hard to judge what the next step 
should be from what you've given so far.

Hi, I have a system with DNA and water, and given the charge of the DNA of -20, 
genion was used to add +20 charge to the gro file. The energy minimization step 
gives then a warning:

WARNING 2 [file em.mdp]:
The sum of the two largest charge group radii (16.704304) is larger than
rlist (1.200000)



Which is the ignored using maxwarn option.

When getting to the em step:

Fatal error:

step 25: Water molecule starting at atom 31535 can not be settled.
Check for bad contacts and/or reduce the timestep if appropriate.




What is the best approach here to correct this?

Thanks!
