I created a 6-membered ring in boat conformation and want to create the template. Running the script $SCHRODINGER/utilities/ring_templating gives the error:

Templates for all existing rings are already present.

What has gone wrong?

Custom ring templates are created only for ring systems that are currently missing templates. Templates for about 1800 different ring systems are already included in the software.

The ring_templating utility enumerates different conformations (within reason) of a ring system, so it does not generate a template for just a single conformation, such as the boat conformation. From the error message you received, this conformation should already be included in the standard templates.
