If you have a bad initial structure, there is not much that either Gaussian
or antechamber can do. The "nan" above in the Gaussian output means "not a
number", meaning that Gaussian totally failed to interpret your input data.
Without seeing the input file, one cannot say why this is. If you are using
antechamber to create the input file, you still need to make sure that the
Gaussian input makes sense. Antechamber is sometimes bad at recognizing bad
input data, and may go ahead and write a Gaussian input file even when it
failed to correctly parse the input pdb file. Again, it is hard to say when
so little information is provided.

Remove the "opt" keyword from the Gaussian file.
....good luck...dac
