have you seen the post I made earlier about ff19SB errors? I am not sure of
the exact issue, but each time I have checked someone's inputs it has
turned out that the structure has high energy contacts and worked fine with
careful equilibration. Can you tell us how you obtained the structure, and
if any parts needed to be modeled? Also your equilibration protocol may be
important so it can help to summarize that.
As Dave suggested, a small example is helpful, particularly if it doesn't
include unusual force field parameters or heavy atoms that needed to be
modeled.
