It seems that many of the files are not being found, including both run executables and your pdb files. That's what all the `No such file or directory` stuff is about.

I would suggest confirming that you have completely installed PyMol and any of the relevant dependencies such as `Process_ligand` that are not being found. [Here is one resource](http://biophys.umontreal.ca/nrg/ewExternalFiles/NRGsuite_Guide.pdf) that might be relevant for that tool. Is `run_flexaid.sh` a script that you have written or a third-party tool? I can't find it by google. Can you show us how you ran it?

I am guessing that `sh ./run_flexaid.sh` is the terminal command that you are using to run the script, but I still don't know where the script comes from. It's possible that running within the script is not using your environment properly somehow. What happens if you try to run `Process_ligand` on its own (if that's possible?). Have you confirmed that your input pdb files are in the right directory? Basically, it's hard to know what's going on without seeing the script and knowing where your input files live on your computer.
