Dear all gromacs users,
         I am trying to run simulation for my Phophorylated threonin
​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​(​​TPO at 172 position in A chain og 4CFF
pdb id), I have generate topology using Prodrg2server. Then i try to run
energy minimization step its showing following error--
1.  step 12: Water molecule starting at atom 13529 can not be settled.
2. Check for bad contacts and/or reduce the timestep if appropriate.
Currently i`m using GROMACS-5.1.2 and GROMOS 54a7 Force Field.​

I have attached the files i used in simulation.
