Apparently you used a newer version to create the .tpr file than the 
version you're using to try to run it. Pick a version and use it; never 
mix and match. Versions in the 5.0.x series are pretty outdated. If 
you're starting new work, use the latest GROMACS version for bug fixes, 
feature enhancements, and much faster performance.
