Hi Chris, no need to apologize, the list is for questions like this!
you might also find some of the web forums like biostars useful for
questions that aren't specific to mauve.
about your question, Mauve has zero support for amino acid alignment,
and it looks like the software is showing its displeasure for your data
by tossing out an incomprehensible error code. I suggest you pick up
some protein sequence alignment software. My current favorite is FSA
because it implements a mechanism for automatically fitting some of the
evolutionary parameters during alignment, but there are many, many
others.
