I have the .gro file and I need to have the topology file to do rest of my simulation. I did not find the top file in ATB website . So I am using g_x2top to do this, but I face with this error:

If ATB is providing you with files for lipids, it should also give you the lipid 
parameters.  Otherwise, consult the literature for a proper topology, rather 
than trying to reinvent one with x2top.  GROMOS force fields do not have .n2t 
files built in, so you would have to build a correct one yourself, which still 
requires you to know everything about the topology.
