Hi Hinge, pdb2gmx is intended to convert protein/nucleic acid chains into topologies. It's not a magical program to convert whatever compound into a topology. Just what it says, there's no residue COA in the database for the force field you're trying to use. Check another force field or try to find parameters in literature or on the web (but do mind to check them!).
