Hi,

     You probably have a pdb file which has multiple possible conformations
for some residues. You can check this by visual inspection of such
residues. They have two side chains coming from the same CA. In the text
file you can see the conformations marked as A and B in the residue name
field, e.g. APHE BPHE.

     If that is the case, you have to choose one of them either manually or
with some other molecular modeling software, e.g. gromacs.

I hope it helps!
Regards,
Leandro
