Your lig_h.pdb file, which assumably contains the ligand with hydrogens added is still missing lots of hydrogens. If this is the file you're currently using, that could explain why you get the same error from sqm.
Lots of software can add hydrogens based on filling open valence bond positions, though whatever you did with chimera seems to have failed here. I loaded your original ligand.pdb into xleap and had it add hydrogens and relax the molecule, similar to what you were trying to do in chimera. Find it attached. Just be sure to visually inspect the structure this time to ensure it looks like you expect and makes sense chemically before proceeding any further.
