The error message is quite specific - you can't have two atomtypes 
directives. Probably, you're #including parts of two force field files, 
which is not allowed, and probably a bad idea if you're mixing two 
distinct force fields. Go and find where you're getting more than one 
atomtypes and re-think. Re-read chapter 5 of the manual if you need more 
knowledge.
