Just like the error says, you need structural information for 2fdvA 
(your template) and your alignment file only provides sequence 
information. This is because your alignment file (sent separately) looks 
like:

>P1;2fdvA
sequence:2fdv:::::::0.00: 0.00

That second line should actually start with structureX: or similar to 
indicate it's an X-ray structure. Look at the example alignment files in 
the Modeller manual for comparison.
