thank you, Charles.
I am facing few problems while running calculations could you please
suggest where I am doing wrong?
I followed protocol as below:-

I used libraries for the charged and uncharged state of ligand to build a
combined PDB file as mentioned in linear scaling, after parametrization and
running a short MD, I followed descharging step as below:-
heating
 &cntrl
   imin = 0, nstlim = 10000, irest = 0, ntx = 1, dt = 0.002,
   ntt = 1, temp0 = 300.0, tempi = 50.0, tautp = 1.0,
   ntc = 2, ntf = 1,
   ntb = 1,
   ioutfm = 1, iwrap = 1,
   ntwe = 1000, ntwx = 1000, ntpr = 1000, ntwr = 5000,

   nmropt = 1,
   ntr = 1, restraint_wt = 5.00,
   restraintmask='!:WAT & !.H=',

   icfe = 1, clambda = 0.0, scalpha = 0.5, scbeta = 12.0,
   logdvdl = 0,
   timask1 = ':BG0', timask2 = ':BG1',
   ifsc = 0,
 /

 &ewald
 /

 &wt
   type='TEMP0',
   istep1 = 0, istep2 = 8000,
   value1 = 50.0, value2 = 300.0
 /

 &wt type = 'END'
 /

But I am having following error in heat.out:-

Checking for mismatched coordinates.
     Error : Atom 1 does not have match in V1 !


Also for *VDW stage*, I stripped off 1st charged ligand (BG0) from combined
PDB and used uncharged (BG1) ligand for vdw setup but I am getting:-

  Molecule 1 is completely softcore and skipped for C.O.M..
     Molecule 2 is completely softcore and skipped for C.O.M..
     Molecule 3 is completely softcore and skipped for C.O.M..
     Molecule 4 is completely softcore and skipped for C.O.M..
     Molecule 5 is completely softcore and skipped for C.O.M..
.
.
.
.
.
 Molecule 2856 is completely softcore and skipped for C.O.M..
     Molecule 2857 is completely softcore and skipped for C.O.M..
 Number of triangulated 3-point waters found: 2854
 Number of shake restraints removed in TI region 1 : 0
 Number of shake restraints removed in TI region 2 : 0

     Sum of charges for TI region 1 = 0.00000000
     Forcing neutrality...


     Sum of charges for TI region 2 = 0.00000000
     Forcing neutrality...



Summary of dvdl values over 100000 steps:
     0.0000
     0.0000
     0.0000
     0.0000
     0.0000
     0.0000

     0.0000
     0.0000
     0.0000
     0.0000
     0.0000

I used following input for this step:-

TI simulation

 &cntrl

   imin = 0, nstlim = 100000, irest = 1, ntx = 5, dt = 0.002,

   ntt = 3, temp0 = 300.0, gamma_ln = 2.0, ig = -1,

   ntc = 2, ntf = 1,

   ntb = 2,

   ntp = 1, pres0 = 1.0, taup = 2.0,

   ioutfm = 1, iwrap = 1,

   ntwe = 1000, ntwx = 10000, ntpr = 10000, ntwr = 20000,



   icfe = 1, clambda = 0.0, scalpha = 0.5, scbeta = 12.0,

   logdvdl = 1,

   ifmbar = 1, mbar_states= 11,

   mbar_lambda= 0.0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5, 0.6, 0.7, 0.8, 0.9, 1.0

   bar_intervall = 10,

   timask1 = ':BG1', timask2 = '',

   ifsc=1, scmask1=':BG1', scmask2='',

I need your suggestions, please.
Thank you
