Hi, Dallas:

I added this to the ffoplsaa.rtp

The format is the same with other entries. Do you guys think anything
wrong with it?

Also what does it mean by the error message:

what is "Source code file: resall.c, line: 289"  It seems the problem
comes from here.

That is the line of code that is spotting a problem.

I think the issue is that, in your original .pdb file, you have dozens of atoms in your polymer chain, all labeled as residue 1. What your .rtp entry says is that a single PDM should contain only three atoms. Since what you are trying to do is make a building block, you will need to do several things:

1. Re-number your .pdb file so that multiple monomers are apparent.
2. Use the + and - characters to indicate connectivity to the next residue and previous residue, respectively. 3. Create separate .rtp entries for terminal groups, as I suggested previously, so that termini are handled correctly (since the -n.tdb and -c.tdb files cannot be used for non-protein).

See the amino acid entries for examples on how to use + and - appropriately, or the list archive for examples provided by other users for other polymers (polyethylene is especially common), for example:

Thanks a lot!

Check consistency with other entries around it, easy way to check to see that 
you have the right format.

What did you edit the file with?

Well that's not a terribly helpful error message, is it? :)

There is probably something wrong with the .rtp entry you
created.  If you
can post that, perhaps someone can spot it.
