Hi,
Tom has already said most of what I would have said. Most importantly, a
negative LLG tells you that the model is not fitting the data as well as
Phaser expects it to, given what you have told it about the model
completeness and assumed RMS error. It may be that the model is too poor to
solve the structure, but sometimes there is a clear solution, even though
the final LLG is negative.
You can only really tell if the solution is a clear one by looking at the
details of the solution statistics. I would look closely at the log file,
to see whether the solution has decent signal-to-noise. What you would like
to see is that the Z-scores (at least for the second copy) are reasonably
high and, in particular, that the packing check did not eliminate potential
solutions with much higher Z-scores.
It would probably be worthwhile looking at the section in our web page on
how to work with difficult cases:

Best wishes,
