Dear Sir,
I want to calculate local pressure of the membrane
(pressure variation with z -axis). I am using gromacs-localp packages.
As I see that all types of errors coming from saying specifically the
option of WALL in .mdp file.
Actually I did not understand clearly what to do in the following options.
The simple answer to me is - why are you using walls? The gromacs-localp
package is based on version 3.0.2, and IIRC walls were introduced much later in
development, probably version 4.0. At least, there is no mention of walls in
any documentation prior to the 4.0 manual.

WALLS
; Number of walls, type, atom types, densities and box-z scale factor
for Ewald
nwall = 2
wall_type = 9-3
wall_r_linpot = -1
wall_atomtype =
wall_density =
wall_ewald_zfac = 3
Could you please write clearly what to write on above options ??
I am writing here the mdp file what I am using in gromacs-localp package
to calculate local pressure.
