The error message is telling you that the C6h point group that your molecule belongs to is non-abelian, 
therefore the TDDFT code -- that exploits abelian symmetry -- cannot cope with it. 
The fix is to choose an abelian point group that is a subset of C6h. 
I choose C2h, and this requires to add the line symmetry c2h in the geometry input section, 
as shown below 
 
geometry units angstrom
symmetry c2h
