This indicates that your computer does not have enough memory to
allocate the arrays for calculation of solvent accessible arcs.You can
try a larger grid spacing to see whether this still happens.

This is possible only with radiopt=0, i.e. radii read in from the prmtop file. You'll have to write a script to put the parse radii into the radius section of your prmtop file. We thought about putting parse radii in pbsa before amber8 was released. We eventually gave up the idea since amber charges are not very compatible with parse radii.
