[AMBER] AMBER 18 error in QM region of QMMM

Hi everyone,

    I am trying QMMM for a protein ATP complex. After 1.798 ps the system
suddenly shows vmax error
    vlimit exceeded for step 798; vmax = **********

   When i googled the error i found that it occurs when there is atom
overlap. So i checked the trajectory. The atoms in the region around the QM
region (seemingly 10A, probably due to cut variable) suddenly move away
from each other. And Gaussian shows error (attached below)
  I cannot understand why this is so.
* The AMBER output file look like this:*
