The IMPROPER section of the prep.in file no longer
has any effect, if you are using leap. Leap simply
matches the atom types in the topology to the
improper params in parm.dat and uses params that
apply.
It sounds like you are lacking parameters for one
or more of the impropers involved.
the IMPROPER section does have a debugging use in
leap - if you load a prep.in and saveamberparm, it
will use the prep impropers to check the ones that
are applied. I forget the details of what is shown.
