The DD geometry depends upon the configuration of the system, constraints 
applied, cutoffs, and any other special restraints (like distance restraints) 
that may be present.  The error message suggests that you decrease the number of 
DD cells, which I would suggest you try.  This makes each DD cell larger and 
thus capable of handling longer interactions.  There are minimum size limits 
defined in the log file; if the system changes much then these can become invalid.
