Hi Justin, 
Here are all the errors with the (atom indices) and the "atom names”.  Based on the order of the errors I think I am making mistakes when I am trying to modify the AGLC units to connect them through O4-2C1 (O4 to the C1 of the next residue).  I am some how sure that I am making mistakes in the connecting bond part.

Just as a reminder, in the first step of setting up my system, I am trying to make a trimer of AGLC—1->4—AGLC—1->4—AGLC. So I modified the AGLC and made 3 copies for the initial residue, called “AGI”, the middle one, called “AGM” and the final one, called “AGF”.
I removed the unwanted atoms, modified the charges and updated the indices , as described in  the CHARMM patch file. I also removed the bond associated with the atoms that I have removed.
For both initial (AGI) and middle (AGM) ones I added the bond below in the [ bonds ]  parts.  
  O4   +C1 
to connect the O4 to the C1 of the next residue.
For the last one (AGF) I did not add any bonds.

Thanks again,
MH

The entirety of the carbohydrate force field should already be ported over, so missing parameters are very odd.
