Dear Amber community members, Bill, Jimm and Ross,
Thanks for your inputs and suggestions.

I have rerun the job in another folder.
The gb calculation is running ok and only gb results are written to the
FINAL_RESULTS_MMPBSA.dat files and corresponding mdout files are also ok.
But there is follwoing error in the _MMPBSA_complex_pb.mdout and
_MMPBSA_receptor_pb.mdout files. This error is not seen in the
_MMPBSA_ligand_pb.mdout file. (please check the attached files).

I'm unable to understand what this error means. Please find time and see if
you can suggest some solution to the problem.
