I dont have a clue where to look next. AMBER parameterizes the terminal residues differently from the non-terminal residues. See rna.rtp. That requires that the terminal residues have a different residue name that pdb2gmx can match accordingly. With the information we have, nobody can say why one of your input files works and the other doesn't.
