my box dimensions are 368A

> Dear all,
> I'm trying to run simulation of 30 proteins in water using the Martini
> force field. I used water.gro file in order to solvate the proteins.
> For minimization I used the em.mdp file published at Martini site
> (http://md.chem.rug.nl/cgmartini/index.php/home). When I set the emtol
> parameter to 10 the system can't converge. So I used emtol 100 and
> then the system converged. I use it as an input for the simulation.
> The file can't be attached as it is too big nut I can send it if needed.
> However, the sumulation crushes when I'm trying to run MD using md.mdp
> also from the Martini site. I'm getting the following warnings and
> errors:
> Warning: Only triclinic boxes with the first vector parallel to the
> x-axis and the second vector in the xy-plane are supported.
> Box (3x3):
> Box[ 0]={ nan, nan, nan}
> Box[ 1]={ nan, nan, nan}
> Box[ 2]={ nan, nan, nan}
> Can not fix pbc.
> Warning: Only triclinic boxes with the first vector parallel to the
