Hi Justin
I had taken United atom pdb file form PRODRG and i want to use OPLS-UA
Interesting choice. That's an antiquated force field...
force field. i dont know what's wrong out there.I have done it befor for
other molecules like DCE, CCL4 etc.
To create a topology for a simple six-atom molecule, pdb2gmx is unnecessary.
Just write the topology by hand. You've effectively already done so. Or, you
can try to troubleshoot an unfortunately cryptic error message.

Hi all
I want to use pdb2gmx to generate hexane topology and hexane.gro

but i get the error message as given below and it doesn't
generate any .top and .gro file . I searched the mailing list
and found a similar post but there is no solution
(http://oldwww.gromacs.org/pipermail/gmx-users/2009-May/041609.html)
previously i used pdb2gmx for other molecules and it worked fine
for the oplsaa force field. any help is highly appreciated.

There is something wrong with the format of your .rtp file.
Unfortunately, the error message in this case is not particularly
helpful.
Based on the residue and atom naming, it appears that you're trying
to interface some sort of PRODRG output with OPLS-AA. Doing so is
fundamentally flawed, mostly because PRODRG gives GROMOS-compatible
topologies (often poor ones, at that). Presumably, you have
introduced new atom types (opls_966/967) corresponding to some
united-atom C type. OPLS-AA is an all-atom force field, so
introducing a united-atom hexane topology is simply wrong, unless
you have somehow demonstrated that a united-atom model behaves
properly and you have done the thorough work of parameterizing this
model.
