I have no clue myself...I reduced this to a single arginine residue, in the
attached pqr file. The command "molsurf test8.pqr 0.0" gives the error
message above.
I'm hoping that Paul Beroza (the author of molsurf) can figure this one out.
But anyone else on this list is welcome to give this a go as well!

I beleive that sander is using a numerical procedure based on icosahedral
partitioning of the vdW surface. This is fine for the SAS (solvent accessible
surface), but does not give the molecule surface (SES), and is not analytical.
Holger (or someone else) can correct me if I am wrong here....
