If you loaded a prep.in file for that residue and that file
has an IMPROPER section, this message probably means that
an improper in the prep.in was not matched by a parameter and
so no improper torsion was added to the prmtop.
This means that loading the prep file of a new residue and saving
a prmtop can help determine if the ff parmeters are there for all
the improper torsions you desire. This is a little-known feature
that was used for development of the then-new leap improper torsion
assignment algorithm.
In any case, you should consider whether there should be an improper
torsion around atom CBB. If so, you would need to add one via loading
a frcmod file before saveamberparm.
