The issue is in atomtypes.atp and is related to an open issue:

http://redmine.gromacs.org/issues/618

Something is wrong with the way atomtypes.atp is handled, such that if any change is made to it, pdb2gmx either hangs or assigns the wrong atom types.

There is no need to modify the .atp file for the force field. Deleting the lines you added (and the blank at the end of the file, which in and of itself causes a hang) fixes the problem.

Hi Justin,

Thanks for your reply. I am using linux on a cluster remotely. It is made up
of Hewlett Packard ProLiant DL160 compute nodes. I didn't see any "._"
appearing in my gromos53a6_lipid.ff folder.
Can you send me a tarball of your gromos53a6_lipid.ff folder (off-list) so I can try to troubleshoot this? Your input .pdb file would be useful, as well.

Not sure what happened... Since there is an option "1" available now, do I
still need the gromos53a6_lipid.ff in my current working directory?

The only reason that option "1" appeared is because it is in the working
directory.

What type of machine are you on?  I've had this hang happen on my Mac before,
 due to the presence of ._ files when you copy from a different location.
I've disabled that option on my workstation.  Other than that, I have no clue
why it would stop there.

Oops sorry!

I found the mistake...

the topology file should read "gromos53a6_lipid.ff/forcefield.itp"
instead of "gromos53a6.ff/forcefield.itp"

You would have gotten this if you had chosen the proper force field with pdb2gmx. Option 1 (which includes the Berger lipids) is the correct one. Option 14 is the vanilla Gromos96 53a6 force field, which is not what you
want.

using Berger Lipids in gromacs 4.5.3

Dear all,

This must be a pretty simple problem but I am stuck nonetheless. I have been using the lipids from Prof Tieleman's website without any problem on
gromacs 4.0.7.

Now that I've got 4.5.3 installed, I want to try the g_membed tool but have encountered these problems.

Following Justin's tutorial which gives a good tip on how to deal with the changes introduced in 4.5.3, these are the things I have done + the output

1) gave new names to the modified  itp files from 4.0.7 ffG53a6_lipid.itp
to forcefield.itp ffG53a6nb_lipid.itp to ffnonbonded.itp ffG53a6bon_lipid.itp to ffbonded.itp

2) created a folder gromos53a6_lipid.ff in the working directory to contain the files in (1)

3) copied aminoacids.c.tdb, aminoacids.n.tdb, aminoacids.hdb, aminoacids.r2b, aminoacids.rtp, aminoacids.vsd, ff_dumitp, spc.itp, ions.itp, watermodels.dat from $GMXLIB into the gromos53a6_lipid.ff folder created in step (2). The created a forcefield.doc as instructed.

4) created .itp for my protein with pdb2gmx huiwen3@magnum
