This error is probably generated by an empty OSSE BURST file. Before ignoring it, check the file size of the BURST SDB file in the native directory. If it is only a few blocks in size (these files are usually several hundred to several thousand blocks) then this is the most likely source of the error and this message can be safely ignored.
