hello users,

i am using gromacs 3.3 version on unix platform
i got these error while running MD simulation of 89 aa in spc216 water for
10ns at step 4088373 time 8176.55 .i had used force field 4a1(official
distribution)
hear I'm sending  .mdp file also
error which i got is

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
hear it is telling that bonds  are rotating more than 30 degrees and showing
LINCS error  with respect to the relative constraint deviation and
in some cases atom -1, atom-2 current value is much high compare to previous
and determinent is also too high .is i need to keep any bond constriants?
,what is the reason for these error
what changes should i do in my .mdp file so that i can over come these
problems

Hear my .mdp file
