Another possibility is that two atoms are so close their VDW energy
calculation causes floating point overflow.

This is the symptom I ran into when trying to run minimizations with packmol-
created starting PDB files: the output above, then sander just hung without
any further output.

In this case, nothing was wrong with sander and nothing was wrong with the input
file. It was the starting structure that was at fault. To diagnose this, try
running a single step and see if it completes with high energies (VDW or, maybe,
electrostatics.)
