Thanks for yor reply, Mark.


At first i was sure that the problem was table-exension because when I
enlarge table-extension value, warning message didn't  appear anymore.
Besides, i have successfully minimized and equilibrated the system
(indicated by Fmax < emtol reached; and no error messages during NVT&NPT
equilibration, except a warning that the Pcouple is turned off in vacuum
system).

However, the error message appeared without table-extension warning makes
me doubt also about my system stability. Here is my mdp setting. Please
tell me if there are any 'weird' setting, and also kindly suggest/recommend
a better setting.
