for my run...the terminal gives an error as:
"the cut off length is longer then half the shortest box vector or longer then the smallest box diagonal element. Increase the box size or decrease the rlist."

Actually this error message is from grompp and it means what it says. The structure file you have provided implies a box size - if a .gro file, then the last line contains box vectors. These have the constraints implied by the error message. Use editconf and/or genbox to fix whatever is wrong.

What does this error mean..as i have not added any box yet.

then i change the rlist to 0.3, & rcoulomb & rvdw to 0.2 and rcoulomb_switch & rvdw_switch to 0.1 . The error gets removed..but for trying other values for these parametrs in between these and the initial values given in the mdp file above, the error reappears.

This is not the way to do a sensible MD calculation. If you don't know why that is, I suggest reading the first chapters of the manual, paying particular attention to description of the non-bonded and electrostatic interactions.
