Hi Maite,

I think the answer is in the archive. But first, could you please
state your question in the subject. Especially since you gave first a
listing of your output, it wasn't really helpful not having an idea
what to look for. I almost decided to ignore this mail...

But likely you have an #include statement in lipid.itp trying to
include ffgmx.itp or something of the like.
