Dear Cecilia,
It looks like you study a bunch of different dipeptide analogs; you
could study all of them one by one using R.E.D. Server Dev. and then
once 'all' correctly defined you could rerun a job, which would
include all your dipeptide analogs, and generate an entire FF for all
these molecules _and_ fragments ready to be validated/used in MD
simulations. I would be happy if you would accept to submit this large
project in R.E.DD.B. once all fully defined.
I looked at your Gly-Pro analogs using:
http://cluster.q4md-forcefieldtools.org/~x/Project/P9501/javaappletmol2-4.html
(x your cluster account; hidden for this email)
I am not a big fan ;-) of one atom type generated by R.E.D. Python in
this P9501 job: I would replace CA by CM in this case; we will correct
that; sorry for that...
A quick workaround until we correct this bug: just provide the full
list of FF atom types you want to use using:
MOLECULE1-ATMTYPE = your choice...

as you can see you corrected by yourself ;-) CM-CA should be CM-CM
> CT-CA-CT 50.0 118.00 Source (from CT-N-CT)
for CT-CM-CT I would prefer to use CT-C -CT by analogy i.e. keeping
the same element; CM = C and not CM = N
> CA-CM-CT 70.0 119.70 Source (from CM-CM-CT)
will become CM-CM-CT and it is known
> C-CT-CA 63.0 110.10 Source (from C-CT-N)
same remark as above; and '63' could become '65'...
> CM-CT-N 63.0 110.10 Source (from C-CT-N)
same remark as above
More generally you could run R.E.D. Python using:
MEPTHOD_OPTCALC = "B3LYP"
BASSET_OPTCALC = "6-311+G(d,p)"
see
http://q4md-forcefieldtools.org/REDS-Development/Demo2-Files/Configuration.py
to generate an optimized geometry generated using a larger theory
level and use ONLY the optimized geometry generated to ONLY determine
the equilibrium values of the unknown FF parameters listed in
frcmod.unknown
> IMPROPER
> CM-CT-CA-CT 1.0 180.0 2 Source
i.e. will become CM-CT-CM-CT and consequently it should be found by
R.E.D. Python using X -X -CM-HA

see above...
I hope this helps,
regards, Francois
