Are you trying to run MMPBSA on 151 frames like the output suggests? Because
your input specifies to only run on 50 frames. That would possibly suggest
some sort of prmtop/trajectory inconsistency. Regardless, you can probably
fine a more helpful error message in the standard error file or in the
_MMPBSA_complex_gb.mdout.
