This means that prmchk doesn't know how to create a force field for H bonded
to Cl. You will have to edit that line to put in the correct parameters
yourself (e.g. from Herzberg's book).

You should also think about whether the above values are correct or not.
Antechamber was designed for "organic" molecules, and it is unlikely that what
it comes up with for HCl is optimal. See if there are some literature values
around, and just edit the frcmod file above.
..good luck...dac
