I am trying to load correctly into LEaP pdb file of RNA molecule 
including 5 Mg+2 ions.
I start the tleap ( or xleap) by:
 >>tleap -s -f $AMBERHOME/dat/leap/cmd/leaprc.rna.ff99
I changed the name of Magnesium ions in pdb file to be MG2 instead of 
MG, I have added the TER in appropriate places, I have changed the OP1 
and OP2 atoms to be O1P and O2P so loadpdb would work without errors - 
and actually I succeeded to get rid of the majority of the errors except 
addition of heavy atoms and H.
=======================
myUnit=loadpdb "~/Desktop/file.pdb"
Loading PDB file: /home/idan/Desktop/file.pdb
  Added missing heavy atom: .R<RA3 89>.A<C1' 11>
  Added missing heavy atom: .R<RA3 89>.A<O4' 10>
  Added missing heavy atom: .R<RA3 89>.A<C2' 29>
  Added missing heavy atom: .R<RA3 89>.A<C4' 8>
  Added missing heavy atom: .R<RA3 89>.A<C3' 27>
  Added missing heavy atom: .R<RA3 89>.A<O2' 31>
  Added missing heavy atom: .R<RA3 89>.A<C5' 5>
  Added missing heavy atom: .R<RA3 89>.A<O3' 33>
  Added missing heavy atom: .R<RA3 89>.A<O5' 4>
  Added missing heavy atom: .R<RA3 89>.A<P 1>
  Added missing heavy atom: .R<RA3 89>.A<O1P 2>
  Added missing heavy atom: .R<RA3 89>.A<O2P 3>
  total atoms in file: 1608
  Leap added 970 missing atoms according to residue templates:
       12 Heavy
       958 H / lone pairs
=======================
Three problems I am failing to deal with, when I run
 >>check myUnit
are:
1.
=================================
ERROR: The unperturbed charge of the unit: -60.691900 is not integral.
WARNING: The unperturbed charge of the unit: -60.691900 is not zero.
2.
=================================
Could not find angle parameter: OW - MG - OW
Could not find bond parameter for: MG - OW
3.
=================================
Warning: Close contact of 1.781064 angstroms between .R<MG....
=================================
As for the problem number 1 - I tried to do "addions", and "addions2" 
but I am failing to get zero...
Problem number 2 - I don't know what to do, parm99.dat file is loaded - 
so I don't know how to try to solve those messages.
Problem number 3 - I don't really know how critical it is - since I can 
not try to run any kind of minimization - before I solve the problems 
number 2 and 1.
Thank you in advance for your help.
