SHAKE algorithm did not converge!

I'm running meta MD calculations for liquid water over metal slab and the for larger systems the calculations always stop after one ionic step due to

Error: SHAKE algorithm did not converge!
Error too large, I have to terminate this calculation!

Can anyone give me guidance on which parameters I can change to minimize this error. Smaller less complex systems can for about 40 steps before being stopping for the same reason.
