It's almost always becasue your input PDB file is bad, although the error
message should be clearer about that. The first instruction, "double check
the structure" is what you need to do. Options (2) and (3) are so arcane
that they should probably not even be mentioned.
Your filename is quite suspicous: "short_taxolderivnoH.pdb": input files to
antechamber must have all hydrogens present. sleap has a "fastbld" option
which often does the trick, but be sure to check its results visually. You
may just want to add the hydrogens by hand using your favorite molecular
builder.
...good luck....dac
