[gmx-users] Re: The WARNING

[Tsjerk Wassenaar]

Vitaly,

This is not a grompp warning, but a warning from one of the analysis
tools. grompp will never take masses 'out of the blue', but will
always use the force field description (atom type definitions) or the
mass specified in the .top/.itp file. It will bail out if no mass is
properly defined for a specified atom. As David pointed out, these
tools would benefit from reading in a .tpr (run input) file, not a
.top file.
