Stop trying to modify 43A1; you likely aren't familiar enough with the structure 
and file formats.

Use the 43A1p files directly.  They work.  I verified it yesterday.  Download 
the force field archive, put it in your working directory or GMXLIB and use it. 
  Don't use 43A1 because it simply won't work.  This much should be clear based 
on the repetition of the exact same error message every time you do anything.
