Hi
Thanks for the answer. For me I don't know where the problem is.

I put my .rtp file in the appendix. Could you please take a look on it?
Greetings
Lara

To be clear - [angles] can be specified in an .rtp file (but are not required, because pdb2gmx will by default generate all angles). An [angletypes] directive in ffbonded.itp supplies the parameters for angles.

Correct, but it is still not clear to me what the problem is here, if there is one. The .rtp file would be necessary to understand what is expected in the topology, as it is not clear to me why some lines have explicit parameters while others do not.

For a normal protein system, most force fields (all except Gromos, if I recall) produce bonded directives with no parameters; they are looked up from ffbonded.itp and not stated explicitly, so "missing" parameters are completely normal and not problematic. If you're dealing with something nonstandard and you've had to create .rtp entries, you'll need to post that information for diagnostic purposes.

These parameters are only overwritten if explicitly present in the topology. If there is a bonded interaction referenced in the topology that does not exist in ffbonded.itp, grompp will fail with a fatal error.
