For this step, I think it is a problem met during adding the hydrogens. You can add the hydrogen first by using another tool
and then based on that step to do the following modeling. I have changed that part in the script attached.

In the script you have:

# Create CU2-13 from CU-503
createResidue CU2 in CLR
addToResidue /NAME/CLR/CU2 /NAME/3/.CU-503/CU..

# Create CU3-14 from CU-501
createResidue CU3 in CLR
addToResidue /NAME/CLR/CU3 /NAME/4/.CU-501/CU..

# Create CU4-15 from CU-502
createResidue CU4 in CLR
addToResidue /NAME/CLR/CU4 /NAME/5/.CU-502/CU..

From my experience, this may be because that you have used the wrong atom number here.
For CU2, you used NAME/3/.CU-503 but for CU3, you used NAME/4/.CU-501.

It suggest it to be:

# Create CU2-13 from CU-503
createResidue CU2 in CLR
addToResidue /NAME/CLR/CU2 /NAME/3/.CU-501/CU..

# Create CU3-14 from CU-501
createResidue CU3 in CLR
addToResidue /NAME/CLR/CU3 /NAME/4/.CU-502/CU..

# Create CU4-15 from CU-502
createResidue CU4 in CLR
addToResidue /NAME/CLR/CU4 /NAME/5/.CU-503/CU..

I have changed the related part in the input file and attached it here.

Please check it and let me know whether it works.

Hope that helps,
Pengfei
