[AMBER] QM/MM issue with boron containing compound (AMBER16)

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to perform QM/MM MD on a boron-containing compound.
I did perform an equilibration of the complex for 1-ns using classical MD
simulation. Everything seems to be fine with this classical MD.

After that, I switched from running classical MD to QM/MM MD using PM6
Hamiltonian. I have found the problem with the reading of boron atom in
which boron atom turned to be an unknown element.
How should I solve this problem?

*My input file is like this:*
