Dear Monsurat,
As the error message indicates, the QM calculation with Gaussian failed. Did you run the test suite? Do the QM/MM tests for Gaussian pass?
There should be a log file called gau_job.log that contains the output from the Gaussian run. Have a look at this file, it should provide information why the job failed (e.g. SCF did not converge etc). Your job could fail for a variety of reasons, for instance SCF failure is not uncommon if the structure in your QM region is very distorted.
All the best,
Andy
