Mod validation is only useful to mod authors to fix bugs related to the mod in question. In order for us to be able to help you, you need to provide us the contents of modman-log.txt (placed between [ code ][ /code ] tags for maximum readability)
However, the issue you're describing is quite common; most likely you either haven't updated FTL to AE (version 1.5.10), or you haven't updated SMM's backups -- to do the latter, follow the instructions here.
