Dear all
I am using Gromacs 4.5.3 to simulate a system including:
CNT+water+surfactant and I want to
use opls force field for my whole system.
so far I have done following things:
1.I copied oplsaa.ff folder in my working directory.
2.I added following lines to atomname2type.n2t
C    opls_995    0      12.011  1    C  0.142
C    opls_996    0      12.011  2    C  0.142  C 0.142
C    opls_997    0      12.011  3    C  0.142  C 0.142  C 0.142
C    opls_998    0      12.011  4    C  0.142  C 0.142  C 0.142 C 0.142
3.I added these to ffbonded.itp
[ bondtypes ]
 C   C  1   0.14210   478900

 [ angletypes ]
 C   C   C   1  120.000  397.480

[ dihedraltypes ]
 C   C   1   0.000 167.360  1
4.I added these to ffnonbonded.itp
opls_995   C      6    12.01100     0.000       A    3.851000e-01
4.39600e-01
 opls_996   C      6    12.01100     0.000       A    3.851000e-01
4.39600e-01
 opls_997   C      6    12.01100     0.000       A    3.851000e-01
4.39600e-01
 opls_998   C      6    12.01100     0.000       A    3.851000e-01
4.39600e-01
5.I used g_x2top to create topology for CNT.
Command line was:
g_x2top -f cnt.pdb -o cnt.top -r cnt.rtp -name CNT -nexcl 5

6.I used TopolGen to produce the *.itp file for surfactant molecule.
7.I placed surfactant molecules around CNT.
8.I used editconf using this command:
editconf -f cnt_sur.pdb -o cnt_sur.gro -c -d 1 -bt cubic
9. I wrote a  a .top file given below,
 Include forcefield parameters
#include "./oplsaa.ff/forcefield.itp"
; Include topology for DTAB
#include "DTAB.itp"
; Include topology for CNT
#include "cnt.itp"
;
[ molecules ]
; molecule name          nr.
DTAB                      14
CNT                       1

10.I called genbox with the command:
genbox -cp cnt_sur.gro -cs spc216.gro -p topol.top -o solv.gro
11.I added manually  these to topol.top
; Include SPC water topology
#include "oplsaa.ff/spc.itp"

12. once I run grompp : grompp -f em.mdp -c solv.gro -p topol.top -o
ions.tpr
I got following errors:
