I've seen those messages couple of times when trying to read a file which does
not conform to the FITS standard either because it is corrupt or of different
file type. You may check your FITS files beforehand using fitsverify
http://heasarc.gsfc.nasa.gov/docs/software/ftools/fitsverify /
to sort out the bad ones.

Isn't this a programming technique called "Killing the messenger"?
