Hi, please make sure you compile with support for vmd plugins. One way to check is that the src/config.h in your build folder contains "#define GMX_DLOPEN". If it does not please check for warnings/errors in the cmake/configure output and let us know how you run cmake/configure.
If have compiled with vmd plugin support, please send the full output of the tool and please send me a small trajectory which reproduces the problem.
