Dear Jose Luis,

Are you sure the Tripos moL2 file format generated is correct ?
See http://tripos.com/index.php?family=modules,SimplePage,,,&page=sup_mol2&s=0

See for instance
http://q4md-forcefieldtools.org/REDDB/projects/W-1/tripos1.mol2

If your molecule is too big, you could split it in more elementary elements.
