I assume that .../Gromacs453/bin is the location where the Gromacs binaries are 
installed?  It's a bad idea to run commands from the location of the 
installation or its subdirectories.  It's also a possibility that the space in 
"molecule tests" is causing problems with filename parsing, but that's a bit of 
a guess.

Move the necessary files to a new location, in a directory named without spaces, 
and try again.
