Dear gmx-users,
                I built a lipid bilayer (72 lipid
molecules and 2376 water molecules) by taking one
lipid molecule from the dppc.pdb file in website:
http://moose.bio.ucalgary.ca/index.php?page=Downloads
 I downloaded dppc.itp and lipid.itp files from the
above link. when i used the grompp command, it shows
the following error.

double-checking input for internal consistency...
ERROR: One of the box vectors is shorter than twice
the cut-off length. Increase the box size or decrease
rlist.
There was 1 warning


How can be the problem solved?
Here i gave my dppc.top file:

#include "ffgmx.itp"
#include "lipid.itp"
#include "dppc.itp"
#include "alm.itp"
#include "ions.itp"

#ifdef FLEX_SPC
#include "flexspc.itp"
#else
#include "spc.itp"
#endif

[ system ]
; name
Alm on surf + relaxed popc

[ molecules ]
; name	number
DPPC    72
SOL     2376


                 Thank you
                                  nagaraju
