Dear Friends,
 I am geting following error during pr.mdp
-------
Warning: 1-4 interaction between 11 and 18 at distance 1.301 which is
larger than the 1-4 table size 1.000 nm
These are ignored for the rest of the simulation
This usually means your system is exploding,
if not, you should increase table-extension in your mdp file
---------
I am running following commands.
-----

editconf -bt cubic -f fws.pdb -o fws.pdb -d 1

What is theproblem i am not getting, i gone through old gmx list and i
got their may be problem of force field,
Which force field is suitable for my protein (having two chain & net
charge of  -42 e) in water ?
Thanks in advanced :)
