Dear GMX users,
I want to prepare .gro and topology file starting from the .pdb file for a polyethylene chain , whose residue is not defined in .rtp, .hdb. and .tdb files. I have defined a new residue in ffoplsaa.rtp file as follows

[ Eth ]
 [ atoms ]
   C1    opls_136    -0.120    1
   H11   opls_140     0.060    1
   H12   opls_140     0.060    1
   C2    opls_136    -0.120    2
   H21   opls_140     0.060    2
   H22   opls_140     0.060    2
 [ bonds ]
   C1    H11
   C1    H12
   C1    C2
   C2    H21
   C2    H22
   C2    +C1
 In ffoplsaa.hdb I defined it as

Eth     2
2       6       H1       C1      C2     +C1
2       6       H2       C2      C1     -C2

At this point I have to note that the presence of the last control atoms in this file has not influenced the process.
In ffoplsaa-n.tdb file I have added

[ Eth ]
[ replace ]
C2      opls_135        12.011   -0.18
[ add ]
3        4      H2      C2      C1
         opls_140       1.008   0.06
[ delete ]
H21
H22

and in ffoplsaa-c.tdb file I have added

[ Eth ]
[ replace ]
C1      opls_135        12.011  -0.18
[ add ]
3        4      H1      C1      C2
         opls_140       1.008   0.06
[ delete ]
H21
H22


After using pdb2gmx -f input.pdb I have obtained following message

Could you specify what means Error in hdb file: nah = 41
line = '' and what is the problem with segmentation.

My input structure in .pdb file is as follows

ATOM      1  C1  Eth     1       1.000   1.540   0.000
ATOM      2  C2  Eth     1       2.456   2.041   0.000
ATOM      3  C1  Eth     2       2.456   3.581   0.000
ATOM      4  C2  Eth     2       3.912   4.083   0.000
ATOM      5  C1  Eth     3       3.912   5.623   0.000
ATOM      6  C2  Eth     3       5.368   6.124   0.000
END

Thank you for help in advance
Best regards
Zuzana
