pdb2gmx

Residue 'XXX' not found in residue topology database
This means that the force field you have selected while running pdb2gmx does not have an entry in the residue database for XXX. The residue database entry is necessary both for stand-alone molecules (e.g. formaldehyde) or a peptide (standard or non-standard). This entry defines the atom types, connectivity, bonded and non-bonded interaction types for the residue and is necessary to use pdb2gmx to build a .top file. A residue database entry may be missing simply because the database does not contain the residue at all, or because the name is different.
For new users, this error appears because they are running pdb2gmx blindly on a PDB file they have without consideration of the contents of the file. A force field is not something that is magical, it can only deal with molecules or residues (building blocks) that are provided in the residue database or included otherwise.
If there is not an entry for this residue in the database, then the options for obtaining the force field parameters are:
see if there is a different name being used for the residue in the residue database and rename as appropriate,
parameterize the residue / molecule yourself,
find a topology file for the residue / molecule and include as a .itp file,
use another force field which has parameters available for this,
search the primary literature for publications for parameters for the residue that are consistent with the force field that is being used.

Long bonds and/or missing atoms
There are probably atoms missing earlier in the .pdb file which makes pdb2gmx go crazy. Check the screen output of pdb2gmx, as it will tell you which one is missing. Then add the atoms in your pdb file, energy minimization will put them in the right place, or fix the side chain with e.g. the WhatIF program.
