AMBER: RESP problem RESP

Dear AMBER users,

I did a RESP fit on guanine (RG), capped with a methyl
group at N9. I knew I wouldn't get the same charges as
those in all_nuc94.in, but I wasn't expecting such big
differences:

atom all_nuc94.in my charges
----------------------------------
N9 0.0492 -0.008536
C8 0.1374 0.119023
H8 0.1640 0.152369
N7 -0.5709 -0.529202
C5 0.1744 -0.031449
C6 0.4770 0.737717
O6 -0.5597 -0.586775
N1 -0.4787 -0.819068
H1 0.3424 0.416906
C2 0.7657 1.041551
N2 -0.9672 -1.120108
H21 0.4364 0.468264
H22 0.4364 0.468264
N3 -0.6323 -0.771436
C4 0.1222 0.358782
----------------------------------
total -0.1037 -0.1037

The total charge on the methyl group was constrained
at 0.1037, which made the net charge on the base the
same as that in all_nuc94.in. It is said that
differences bigger than 0.1 are likely due to errors
in the inputs, so I am including the gaussian input
file along with the resp input files (input files were
generated by antechamber, I modified the RESP inputs
to add the charge constraint).

Gaussian:

#HF/6-31G* SCF=tight Test Pop=MK iop(6/33=2)
iop(6/42=6)

The structure is already optimized

I really don't know what's going on, surely there must
be a mistake somewhere. Please I need your help. I
would be most grateful if you could help me sort this
problem out, any suggestion you could give me would be
highly appreciated. Thank you.

Laura.
