Dear amber users,
 I am running QMMM module implemented in AMBER 12. Here is my md.in file.

imin=0,irest=1,ntx=5,
  nstlim=25000,dt=0.001,
  ntc=2,ntf=2,
  cut=10, ntb=2, ntp=1, taup=1.0,
  ntpr=50, ntwx=50,
  ntt=3, gamma_ln=2.0,
  temp0=300.0,
  ifqnt=1,
 /
&qmmm
  qmmask=":18-20,39-41,60-62",
  qmcharge=-5,
  qm_theory="PM3",
  qmcut=10.0,
  writepdb=1,
/

After running simulation for 50ps, while extending it to further time
period ends in following error..

QMMM: WARNING!
QMMM: Unable to achieve self consistency to the tolerances specified
QMMM: No convergence in SCF after 1000 steps.
QMMM: Job will continue with unconverged SCF. Warning energies
QMMM: and forces for this step will not be accurate.
QMMM: E = -0.1349E+08 DeltaE = -0.2833E+05 DeltaP = 0.1770E+01
QMMM: Smallest DeltaE = 0.2069E+03 DeltaP = 0.1570E+01 Step = 73

How to solve this error??

Thanks in advance..
