First, is there any indication in the output file of a LINMIN failure?
(You mentioned that in the subject of the email, but above you just say
that the program stops after 30 steps--is there something in the output
file you are not showing us?)

Second, You still have very bad van der Waals terms, suggestive of a bad
initial conformation, so bad that minimization is not able to fix it.
Have you run "checkstructure" in cpptraj on the initial coordinates?
That is likely to point to problems with your starting structure.
