I fear that with that information nobody can solve your issue. The error
suggests that you are trying to write into GeoTIFF something that is not OGC
WKT Projection. You must tell us what you try to write into GeoTIFF, even
better if you attach the failing code as well.

You say that you try to load a file and the error says that you try to write
something invalid into a file so perhaps your code does not do what you
believe it does.

For self-help I believe this is useful http://www.gdal.org/osr_tutorial.html
and probably this also
