[gmx-users] fatal error in grompp

Hi Argyrios,

It means that grompp expects a file aminoacids.dat, which is a library
file, but can't find it in your current directory and it can't find it
in directories which grompp searches by default. Additionally, grompp
gives you a suggestion to solve it, mentioning that you can set a
variable, GMXLIB, containing directories to search for library files.

Now I'm really tempted to stop the reply here. The error message was
perfectly clear. You need to locate aminoacids.dat which should be in
the subdirectory /share/gromacs/top of the directory where you have
gromacs installed. The GMXLIB environment variable should point to
that directory.
