Hi,
   Thanks for the help. I corrected for the mistakes and tried to run
the simulation. Now i am getting an different error splitPatch hydrogen.
I know that we have to define this when we have to keep the bonds rigid.
I did this in the config file, but still i get the same error.

TCL: Suspending until startup complete.
FATAL ERROR: splitPatch hydrogen is required for rigidBonds

Sincerely
Naresh
