The -pairs option is not relevant for what you are trying to do.  From g_energy -h:

"Additionally running time-averaged and instantaneous distances
between selected pairs can be plotted with the -pairs option."

This option is only to be used when employing distance restraints, hence 
g_energy fails when it finds none.  You need neither -pairs nor -s.
