i added new atomtype for dichloroethane (DCE) and added the
corresponding parameters in the .rtp, .atp, .bon.itp, .nb.itp
respectively. given below are my additions to the corresponding

After adding all this, when i run grompp i get the error as <b>fatal
error Unknown bond_atomtype CLAA</b>. can any one tell me why
this happens?.<br>

<br>
I can't tell until I know how you've invoked grompp, and how you
generated the .top file it needs, and which line of that .top grompp
doesn't like. When asking for help, please copy and paste all your
relevant commands, and any error messages in full, and any relevant
chunk of the .top. Check whether that .top file is #including the
correct .itp files.<br>
