[gmx-users] Segmentation fault after mdrun for MD simulation

Dear gmx-users:
Thanks Justin for your help. But now I am experiencing a Segmentation fault error when executing mdrun. I've perused the archives but found none of the threads on segmentation faults similar to my case here. I believe the segmentation fault is caused by the awkward positioning of atoms 8443 and 8446 with respect to one another, but am not 100%. Any advice would be especially welcome.
My files are as follows:

Hi,
I get the error "Atomtype CR1 not found" when I execute grompp. After perusing the gmx archives, I understand this error has to do with the lack of "CR1" being specified in the force field. However, I did include the appropriate .itp files in my .top file (shown below). As you can see, obviously CR1 is specified in taxol.itp and gtp.itp. Therefore, I'm not sure what exactly is the problem here.
You're mixing and matching force fields. PRODRG produces Gromos-compatible parameters (and does a poor job of that - I can tell you now that the charges assigned to the aromatic C and H of taxol are total junk). You're then trying to combine these parameters with OPLS. Even if you could somehow hack the topology together, the results would be useless.
For more about the hazards of PRODRG, see http://pubs.acs.org/doi/abs/10.1021/ci100335w.
The solution is to pick a force field and apply it uniformly to the system you're working with.

Any input on this issue would be greatly appreciated.
