[gmx-users] pdbgmx warning long bond

I had the same problem few days ago (this was my first simulation too ;) 
when running a simulation on a standard B-DNA.
I modified the names of atoms and residus in the pdb file of my dna to 
match G43a1.rtp names. Then when I run pdb2gmx I had the same warning.  
I tried to open the modified pdb file in say rasmol, and I saw that the 
molecule was totally modified as well.

Explanation: when modifying the name of residus name (this apply to 
atoms as well), I had modified the strict columns format of the pdb 
file. Then the 3 fields corresponding to xyz coordinates were shifted by 
a few number of columns and from that, misinterpreted by the pdb2gmx. 
Knowing that the fix is straightforward.
Hope this can help
