Hello. Looks like you replaced $A^\rho$ by $g^{\alpha\beta}A_\beta$. What happened to $\rho$ and how did $\alpha$ appear? Similarly for your indices on the partial derivative: $\sigma$ disappears while $\eta$ suddenly appears.

Thanks Tsny, ...but it's a simply rename of the index... i mean... i think this is not the problem..

You can't rename free indices, only 'dummy' (ones summed over) ones.
