As Jason pointed out, providing the actual error message would be a great
help.
Generally, the box size must be greater than 2*cutoff + skinnb, where skinnb
is a buffer region that allows the nonbonded list to be updated less
frequently. It's default is 2 Ang, which (I'm guessing!) is what is causing
your error.
You *could* reduce skinnb to 1 Ang. But 17.5 Ang is a very small box size for
Amber calculations. So you should also consider going to a bigger system.
