Dear Dr. Tsjerk,
Many many thanks for your help. This makes me some sense but still I am confused about that you indicated me to look out the gromacs/share  directory.  In my gromacs, I have following directory tree:
gromacs/share/gromacs/top
I did not found a format. I am wandering what could be that file in which I can check format.
Other is, What I am doing my simulation is: pdb2gmx--->editconf.--->genbox---grompp---mdrun.  But to get (.tpr) I need to pass editconf first.
Would you please let me know how do I include mass on (.pdb). 
Thanks alot
Hari

Hi Hari,

The .pdb file you use as input has no masses listed. Editconf then resorts to a file called atommass.dat. You can check the format in the gromacs share directory and put a file in the same format in the working directory. Alternatively, you can make a run input file (.tpr) of your system and use that as input to editconf. The .tpr file has the real masses, taken from the atomtype definitions.

Hope it helps,

Tsjerk

Do I have to do something in source code or may be OS plateforms any any possibility. PLEASE HELP ME. THIS ERROR IS HANGING ME SINCE A MONTH.If I have to do something in source code please let me know which file should be that. Or if it is due to environment then please let me know how do I come over this problem..
