Well, it appears that you do have a different issue ... maybe somebody
else can help further. From the error you report its not easy to guess
what the issue is .... Are your input files OK? Can you perform your
PB/GB calculations separately with "sander" ? What are your "mdout"
files saying, any hint there ? Probably you need to go step by step
manually in the MMPBSA procedure with full verbose output and try to
figure out where things go wrong ....

Sorry for not being so helpful ....

Good luck !
