A problem with TDDFT calculation for a molecule with D2-symmetry

Dear All,
trying to calculate the theoretical spectrum of D2-symmetry anionic squaraine dye, I've faced with the problem which I cannot solve.
The checking of input-file (is attached here) ends normally. But full processing interrupts after calculation of basic molecular properties with the lines:

Please, explain me my mistake.
