Dear Justin,

I am trying to make topology file for cellulose II. The monomer unit is
glucose (residue type GLCA). I do the following:

pdb2gmx -f cellulose.gro


I am getting the following error while using pdbgmx.

"Fatal Error:
Atom -O not found in residue 2 while adding improper"

Atom type "O" is actually not part of the GLCA residue. Only atom type OA is
part of GLCA residue.
Do I need to modify the rtp entry to suit my system or does this error
corresponds to something else ?

Your help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Vishal
