AMBER: MM-PBSA problem

Hi, all,

I am trying to perform MM-PBSA calculations on a protein-ligand complex to
estimate the binding free energy. The complex is large (15504 atoms) and so
I needed to increase the variable MAXAT. However I am still having problems.
The calculation does not come to the end.
Here is my mm_pbsa.out:

To see if the problem was with Delphi, I try to use the PB method
implemented in the pbsa program, but it also gives error:

-- > /scratch/programs/amber8/amber8_mod//exe/pbsa -O -i pbsa.in -o
pbsa_com.1.out -c ./complexo-modelado_com.crd.1 -p
./complexo-finalsolv_oct_semsolv.top not successful

[1] Exit 25 mm_pbsa.pl mm.exp2.in > mm.exp2.out


The pbsa_com.1.out end with the following error:

======== PB Initialization ========

     Max PBMD Nonbonded Pairs: 7136003 3767472

PB bomb in pb_aaradi(): ZERO sigma found for non-hydrogen atom


The content of the mm_pbsa.out is:

Does anyone know what may be happening? Is there something wrong with the
parameters I am using?

Thanks in advance
