You asked Modeller to read the sequence called "G8EW14.fasta" from your
alignment file by saying sequence=('G8EW14.fasta') in your Python script:
# Modelling 'sequence' with file.ali
a = automodel(env, alnfile='CpLANcab.ali',
knowns=('4LXJ','4K0F','4WMZ'),
sequence=('G8EW14.fasta'),
But you don't have a sequence by that name in your alignment file:
P1;G8EW14
sequence:G8EW14.fasta:::::::0.00: 0.00
Note that the G8EW14.fasta on the second line is the name of the PDB
file that Modeller will read the structure from (see
http://salilab.org/modeller/9.15/manual/node494.html, field 2). The name
of the sequence is the part after P1;, i.e. "G8EW14". Modify your Python
script accordingly.
