Probably something on page 6 of your document disturbs LaTeX. Move
\end{document} around until you find the problematic place.  The

No. Something is wrong in the document body, not in the preamble.
And if you are really using only the packages mentioned in the copy
of the terminal output then they shouldn't be a problem anyway.
