OK: you are rolling your own commands, and are pretty much on your own
to see what is going wrong. Consider using standard leaprc files (e.g.
leaprc.protein.ff14SB, leaprc.water.tip3p).

I note that you called chloride "Cl" in the loadmol2 command, but called
it "Cl-" in the addIons command. Look carefully at the leap.log file to
see exactly what is going on.

Here's my best guess: you get the error for "Na" because the Amber libraries
recognize "NA" and "Na+" (for backward compatibility), but don't have any
entries for "Na". There was no error for chloride because of the above typo
in the addIons command. Easiest fix is probably to edit your pdb file
and use "NA" and "CL" for sodium and chloride ions.
