Dear Prof Case,

Great thanks for your valuable guide! Now it works for the sqm calculation
with a looser convergence criterion of 1.0d-9 rather than 1.0d-10.

This time I just the command, I only change the scfconv value from 1.d-10 to
1.d-9:
antechamber -i 4.pdb -fi pdb -o 4.mol2 -fo mol2 -c bcc -s2 -ek
"grms_tol=0.00001, tight_p_conv=1, scfconv=1.d-9, qmcharge=0,
qm_theory='AM1' "


Kind regards
Shulin
