This link appears to be broken.

Without seeing the tutorial we need more details about what you
actually did. Is this a solvated system? Did you add a box via e.g.
the solvatebox command in LEaP?

Again, it's hard to say what you are trying to do here. If your QM/MM
system doesn't already have a box/solvent, you would need to add them
via e.g. LEaP.

For imaging to work (with any program) your system needs to have a
unit cell (box) set up.

Can you provide more details about your system, and the exact steps
you've taken so far?
