Hello Everyone

I am doing QM/MM studies on a ligand, taking ligand + 3.5 A of water within
ligand in QM region, and rest of the water molecules in MM, in a box size of
22 A. The minimization went fine, but while heating the system I am getting
QMMM: WARNING!
QMMM: Unable to achieve self consistency to the tolerances specified
QMMM: No convergence in SCF after 1000 steps.
QMMM: Job will continue with unconverged SCF. Warning energies
QMMM: and forces for this step will not be accurate.
QMMM: E = -0.1752E+07 DeltaE = 0.3029E-05 DeltaP = 0.1034E-07
QMMM: Smallest DeltaE = -0.1765E-06 DeltaP = 0.4715E-07 Step = 20

In mailing archive I found scfconv = 1.0d-8 this can get rid with this
error. But not in my case. Can anyone guide me how to get over with this
error?
Here is the Input file:
