[gmx-users] harmonic potential on the distance between two atoms

Hi,

I am doing simulation on a single peptide (352 atoms)
solvated in a box of water. I want to apply a harmonic
interaction between two atoms on the peptide which are
not chemically bonded. So I add a section in the top
file:

[ bonds]
;  ai    aj funct      b0           kb
    1   349     6      3.0e-01      1.0e+01

My mdrun stopped right after started, leaving quite a
few step??.pdb files. The MD log file say:

There were 2 inconsistent shifts. Check your topology.

If I don't include the above section in the top file,
it runs perfectly. I have also tried to vary the value
of b0 and kb, still failed. 

Could someone tell me what is wrong with my way of
implementing harmonic potential?

Thanks.

Shirley
