OK so far.

That is where things went bad.  Clearly your restraints are inadequate
at best, and perhaps they are simply wrong.  You should look closely
at the output log from the refinement run, and you should also run
standard validation tools (procheck, coot, sfcheck, ...) to figure out
which restraints are failing.  The problem may be as simple as
an improper MATRIX weight.
