What is the sum of the charges in the input mol2 file? Since you will be
generating new bcc charges anyway, you may have to zero out the charges in the
input file, especially if they suggest a net charge different than what you
want.

You should look at the mopac.out file to see what error messages might be
there.

I agree this is weird...suggested fixes are welcome...cc-ing to Junmei.
