I would be VERY wary of using GAFF for iron sulphur clusters. This is way
outside of what it was designed to do. I suggest checking the literature to
see what others have done since I know numerous people have looked at such
systems in the past.

Looks to me like missing TER cards or a messed up initial structure. Bonds
of 89 angstroms are not good! You need to check your initial structure and
bonding carefully.

You need to provide a frcmod file containing the parameters for Iron and
probably for the sulphur as well. If you tried to use antechamber it
probably quit with an error and never actually produced the files you need.
I suggest looking for parameters in the literature.
Good luck,
