Dear Prof. Case

I use following procedure to prepare lig.frcmod and lig.prep file and encounter some problems
===============================================
give a ligand's MOL2 file, lig.mol2
antechamber -i lig.mol2 -fi mol2 -o lig.gjf -fo gcrt
g98 <lig.gjf> lig.out
antechamber -i lig.out -fi gout -o lig.prep -fo prepi -c resp
parmchk -i lig.prep -f prepi -o lig.frcmod
==================================================

(1)
the resultant *.prep file have one line with "nan0x7fffffff". is there something wrong? how to fix it?
when I use this *prep file to do MMPBSA, MMPBSA also give out some result.
please find enclosed no137_1.prep for detail information.

(2) charge in *.prep is not reasonable
I use the same procedure as metioned in question (2) the last column in *.prep file is unreasonable.

for detail info please find enclosed no383_1.prep
I view the pdb file but can't see any problem, so

WHAT is the problem with "antechamber" command ???

thank you for your kindly reply

Yong
