There is no connection between the force field and this issue. I can offer no explanation other than to tell you something else is going on there that you didn't account for.

Don't mix and match force fields. This is fundamentally unsound. Specific pair interactions (1-4) or nonbonded interactions (NBFIX) are highly tuned for specific interactions. Don't make any assumptions based on things that "look similar."

Then, how can I get those parameters?
Thanks.

Your problem is in ffnonbonded.itp:
Sr 38 87.62000 2.000 A 0.310269 0.494658
"SR" and "Sr" are not the same.
You also have more problems that come from typos:
CN88 SR 1 0.310269 0.494658
There is no such thing as "CN88" - you copied the atomtype wrong (it's CN8B, which makes me wonder where you got these parameters if you're trying to use a non-existent atom type...)
You've got other issues with mismatching names, but those are straightforward to sort out.
