Two points:
1. please indicate in email what went wrong -- what was the error message,
etc. I'm glad you gave your input files, but it would take a long time for
someone on the list to try to reproduce the problem, just to find out what the
error was.
2. I'm no packmol expert, but I think you would need to set the box parameters
in the second script. Also, you might try tleap: it tends to be more verbose
and might give some additional clues.
