I hope you realize that this all very frustrating to people who are trying to
help you. Once again: the failure to find the cntrl namelist has nothing to
do with what molecule you are running, what you did with xleap or antechamber,
or anything like that.

One of the files you attached was called eqmecycl_vac_md1_12Acut.out. Did you
look closely at this? Here is what I see:

 Here is the input file:

Â| imin = 0, ntb = 0,
Â| igb = 0, ntpr = 100, ntwx = 100,

Â| cut = 12.0

 Could not find cntrl namelist

Before the last line, the program is just copying the input file you provided,
so you can see what you asked the program to do. Note the two characters at
the beginning of the lines with cntrl namelist: those are your problem. They
are coming from the input file itself (which as far as I can see, you did not
attach to your email; there was an input file attached, but it was clearly
from some different job).
