There's very little we can help with here, unless you provide some useful details. Version/distro of Linux? Where you're getting this error? What you're doing to GET the error? Things like that.

The message would seem to indicate that you're running some sort of program/script to get that message...without knowing WHAT that is, when you're running it and seeing the message, and what the program/script does, there's little we can do.
