This is just information, indicating that there is no center-of-mass (COM)
velocity -- that is fine.

For non macromolecules, you have to use LEaP (or antechamber) to prepare
descriptions of the molecules -- you can't just read in a pdb file. Once
you have the libraries prepared, it should not be a problem to read in
a pdb file with both a protein and a ligand (say). We would need more details
to provide further assistance.
