It looks like your your "lig.pdb" file already has hydrogens, so there
is not need for reduce. [Aside: reduce uses a HETATM database to look
for hydrogens, so it won't necessarily know what to do with a residue
called "LIG".]
However, your structure has a couple of problems. First, the atom names
are not unique (all carbons are called "C", etc.).
You also have a very bad contact between two hydrogens, that may cause problems.

This is the bad naming problem, and will need to be fixed. One way to
do this is to use antechamber to convert your lig.mol2 file back to pdb
format. If you examine that file, you should see that the atom names
are now all unique. OR, you could revisit how you "extracted the
coordinate lines" for the ligand -- were the names unique at that point?
[It's possible that your reduce runs gave you problems.]
