I have seen this problem for the first time on our Gromacs workshop last 
week.
I think the problem is that genbox does not recognize some crystal waters in
your input coordinate file. genbox currently checks for SOL, WAT and HOH.
What is the residue name of your crystal waters?

The solution for the moment is to manually count the water molecules in
the gro file and then correct the top file.
