[AMBER] Issue with MMPBSA calculation

Dear Amber Users

I faced the issue during MMBSA calculations for protein-peptide
complex. In my system the ligand corresponded to the fragment of 10
aminoacids (:240-250)

First I successfully make a stripped trajectories using

ante-MMPBSA.py -p ${prmtop} -c complex.prmtop -r receptor.prmtop -l
ligand.prmtop -s ':WAT:Cl-:Na+:K+:OL:PC:PA' -n :240-250

that produced 3 prmtop files for complex, ligand and receptor which I
checked in VMD and it looks OK

Then I run

MMPBSA.py -O -i mmgbsa.in -o mmgbsa.dat -do DECOMP.dat -sp ${prmtop}
-cp complex.prmtop -rp receptor.prmtop -y *.nc -lp ligand.prmtop

29 frames were processed by cpptraj for use in calculation.

Running calculations on normal system...

Beginning GB calculations with /opt/site/ubuntu_22.04/amber/22b/bin/sander
  calculating complex contribution...


and here is the error:

  File "/opt/site/ubuntu_22.04/amber/22b/bin/MMPBSA.py", line 100, in <module>
    app.run_mmpbsa()
  File "/opt/site/ubuntu_22.04/amber/22b/lib/python3.10/site-packages/MMPBSA_mods/main.py",

    self.calc_list.run(rank, self.stdout)
  File "/opt/site/ubuntu_22.04/amber/22b/lib/python3.10/site-packages/MMPBSA_mods/calculation.py",
line 82, in run
    calc.run(rank, stdout=stdout, stderr=stderr)
  File "/opt/site/ubuntu_22.04/amber/22b/lib/python3.10/site-packages/MMPBSA_mods/calculation.py",

    raise CalcError('%s failed with prmtop %s!' % (self.program,
CalcError: /opt/site/ubuntu_22.04/amber/22b/bin/sander failed with
prmtop complex.prmtop!

I've checked complex.parmtop produced by ante-mmbsa and did not find
any errors with it. Could you suggest what could be fixed with it ?

Yours with thanks

Enrico
