This is my mdp file for energy minimization:

constraints              = none

; integration parameters
integrator               = l-bfgs
dt                          = 0.00

; center of mass removal

; energy minimization

And this is the one for MD

nsteps                    = 10000000 
;init_step                = 0
comm_mode            = linear 
nstcomm                 = 10      

; output control
nstxout                 = 10000   
nstvout                 = 10000

energygrps            = hexane-UA ethanol   

; neigbour searching
nstlist                   = 1           
ns_type                = grid        
pbc                      = xyz         
rlist                      = 1.4        

; electrostatics
coulombtype              = Reaction-Field-zero
rcoulomb                   = 1.1
epsilon_r                   = 1.0
epsilon_rf                  = 0.0

; van der Waals interactions
vdwtype                  = cut-off

fourier_ny                = 0
fourier_nz                = 0
pme_order               = 4      
ewald_rtol                = 1e-6 
optimize_fft              = yes   

; Generate velocities
gen_vel                   = yes          
gen_temp                = 298.0     
gen_seed                 = -1          


To use as the starting configuration the last configuration of the
minimization, I used the confout.gro file of the minimization as the input
conf.gro for MD. I also tried using the traj.trr file generated after
minimization with the grompp option -t for MD. I used the same top and ndx
files in both simulations.

Thanks
