[gmx-users] co-ordinate number mismatch

Hi,

I am trying to simulate a proein-ligand simulation. My protein is a
tetramer and has 3 ligands, ATP, OXL and FDP. As I am using
amber99sb-ildn forcefield, I generated the topology and co-ordiante
files fusing Acpype. I have appended the information to cinluded in
the topology file i.e. complex.top and also the atomtypes information
in tandem to the acpype instructions. Also, I appended the
co-ordinates of the ligands into my file generated after pdb2gmx step
where the topology of protein was generated. However, after defining
my box, when I preprocess my system before adding ions, I come across
the final error.

Fatal error:
number of coordinates in coordinate file (system_solv.gro, 315767)
             does not match topology (complex.top, 315771)

I do understand that somewhere either the information is not updated,
which I have seen several times to be getting updated or else there is
a problem with SOL molecules. I have tried running a simulation of
another protein-ligand system in exactly the same manner and didn't
encounter any problem. It would be really helpful if someone possibly
give me the suggestion and possible solution. I have appended partial
contents  of both the files below:
