Dear Dr Justin and Gromacs User,
As I mentioned in the previous email , I download the parameter from this
website which was build for all-atom simulation (
http://mmkluster.fos.su.se/slipids/Downloads.html ). I attached the file
below . I have a confusion with Tielema's website. I use this for run
membrane protein simulations and it work well, no errors like the topology
which was embedded in charmm36 force field for with Gromacs format.

I just want to ask why I got many error when I use the topology which was
embedded in charmm36 force field for with Gromacs format? Some suggestion
to me please.

Dear Dr. Justin
Thank you so much for your suggestion. I will try with CHARMM-GUI.

Best regards,
Tuong Vy
