People who might help aren't at all interested in your description of 
the error message. If the contents of your head were reliable, you 
wouldn't have seen the error in the first place, or would have solved 
the issue already. :-) Copy and paste your command line, and what seems 
to be the relevant part of the error.

To use pdb2gmx, you need .rtp file entries that correspond to your 
monomers. If not, you will not be able to use pdb2gmx to generate your 
topology files.
