Pleas don't shrug!
Sorry :-(
I attach the top file generated by pdb2gmx and this is what I see in terminal:
Processing chain 1 (177 atoms, 24 residues)
Identified residue FVAL1 as a starting terminus.
Identified residue GLY24 as a ending terminus.
8 out of 8 lines of specbond.dat converted successfully
Select start terminus type for FVAL-1
 0: NH3+
 1: NH2
 2: None

Start terminus FVAL-1: None
Select end terminus type for GLY-24
 0: COO-
 1: COOH
 2: CT2
 3: CT3
 4: None

Checking for duplicate atoms....
Now there are 24 residues with 360 atoms
Making bonds...
Number of bonds was 362, now 362
Generating angles, dihedrals and pairs...
Before cleaning: 925 pairs
Before cleaning: 930 dihedrals
Keeping all generated dihedrals
Making cmap torsions...There are   22 cmap torsion pairs
There are  930 dihedrals,   49 impropers,  644 angles
           916 pairs,      362 bonds and     0 virtual sites
Total mass 2510.906 a.m.u.
Total charge 1.000 e
Writing topology

 
Then eneter commands:
# editconf -f monomer.gro -o monomer_newbox.gro -c -d 1.0 -bt cubic
# genbox -cp monomer_newbox.gro -cs spc216.gro -o monomer_solv.gro -p topol.top
# grompp -f ions.mdp -c monomer_solv.gro -p topol.top -o ions.tpr 

This is what I get from grompp:

   

Generated 21528 of the 21528 non-bonded parameter combinations
Generating 1-4 interactions: fudge = 1
Generated 18355 of the 21528 1-4 parameter combinations

NOTE 1 [file topol.top, line 3378]:
  System has non-zero total charge: 1.000000
  Total charge should normally be an integer. See
  http://www.gromacs.org/Documentation/Floating_Point_Arithmetic
  for discussion on how close it should be to an integer.

Program grompp, VERSION 4.5.5
Source code file: /home/abuild/rpmbuild/BUILD/gromacs-4.5.5/src/kernel/grompp.c, line: 1372

Fatal error:
There were 6 errors in input file(s)
For more information and tips for troubleshooting, please check the GROMACS
website at http://www.gromacs.org/Documentation/Errors

This is all I got.
I couldn't attach the .top file, it was too big.

Sincerely,
Shima

Shrug... if you won't copy and paste your output you can't be helped. As 
I've said, ignoring warnings is asking for trouble unless you really 
know why you can do it. But I'm going to stop repeating myself.
