Hi!

I ran to same kind of problem. Formatdb is sensitive about the title line of the fasta formatted sequence. (Title line= line starting with >). If I remember correct, I got the same kind error when my title line was not "FASTA Defline Format". 

Read from the page 
http://bioinformatics.ubc.ca/resources/tools/?name=formatdb  
the section "FASTA Defline Format". 

Hope it helps !
