[gmx-users] Problem on solvating system with non-water solvent

Dear All,


I had creating a box with 100 formic acid molecules in it, and copied the gro file of the box into the Gramacs topology directory after minimization and equilibration steps. The sovation step  with this formic acid box succeeded, but the next step is not OK when using the command line: gmx grompp -f em.mdp -c solv.gro -p topol.top -o em.tpr,  the error code is: ERROR 1 [file topol.top, line 3772]:  No such moleculetype FORH.  FORH is the exiting entry in the rtp file. Does it mean that I need create an itp file for the fomic acid box ? Thank you for your suggestion!




My topology file looks like this:
