Your ligand is just one residue, right? If this is the case, then MMPBSA.py should be able to guess the receptor_mask and ligand_mask without you specifying it. If MMPBSA.py cannot guess the masks with a one residue ligand, then more than likely there is an inconsistency with the prmtop files.

The error that you are now getting means that the sander calculations (GB and PB) did not actually calculate any energies. The reason for this error is probably a sander error that should be near the end of the
_MMPBSA_*.mdout files. This should have a sander error message that will be helpful. You also might want to check the STDOUT and STDERR files for any possibly important messages that got printed there.

Good luck!

 Thanks for your suggestions earlier.
 I have tried to fix the receptor and ligand masking issue as specified in
 the mail below. Please check if thats ok.

 what is this potential terms error in sander output. I have attached my
 initial and avgcomplex pdb files here, but can't attach the mdcrd file as
 it makes the message large and is not delivered.
