[gmx-users] making a box of water

[Payman Pirzadeh]

OK!
I changed my .top file to 

;This is simulation for TIP4P water model
[ defaults ]
; non-bondedtype        combrule        genpairs        FudgeLJ
FudgeQQ         N
1                       2               NO

; include TIP4P topology
#include "tip4p.itp"

[ system ]
Pure box of water

[ molecules ]
SOL               506

But I still get the same error message! Should I include the [defaults] in
the .itp file?

Well, ffgmx is deprecated, so it is probably not the best choice :)
Choosing a 
force field should not be a haphazard occasion, it is a very important
choice. 
For water models, parameters should be uniform, but if you're simulating a 
protein, you'll want to make a very educated decision.
