Hi Vijay,
You need to define the NEW parameters in a file (frcmod file) and load
that file into xleap with 'loadamberparams frcmod'. Check out the AMBER
parameter file to understand what I mean. And also read the following
webpage:
http://amber.scripps.edu/formats.html
Read the part which starts with "Force field parameter file
specification". It talks about how to create the frcmod file for your
system. For instance u have the following error message:
Could not find bond paramter for: CG - S
This means that the bond parameter (here its the average bond length) is
not defined for the atom type CG and S. (Check this out in the AMBER
parameter file u are loading in xleap, whether its there or not) The
same thing is also true for the other missing parameters, bond angle,
torsion, etc.
Hope this helps a little bit. I know its confusing, but try to understand
the frcmod file from the above link I gave to u. Also, read Ch.12 of the
AMBER 8 manual. It talks about how to define the new parameters, what they
mean, etc...
Good luck...
