thanks. i read chapter 5 and i saw the DPPC topology in the membrane protein tutorial but i still cant find what's wrong with my topology format.
below is how my topol.top file looks like

#include "ffgmx_lipid.itp"

[ moleculetype ]
; Name            nrexcl
Protein_A           3

[ atoms ]
; nr type resnr residue atom cgnr charge mass typeB chargeB massB 1 CH3 1 DPPC C1 1 0.124 15.035 ;

; Include DPPC chain topology
#include "DPPC.itp"


This doesn't make any sense. You've defined a "Protein_A" moleculetype containing DPPC, then you're including a chain topology for it (again) here.

*and my ffgmxbon_lipid.itp file is:*

Here you're including an .rtp entry in the topology that should hold only bonded parameters. This is where the error originates; you've pasted together two entirely different files.
