That's just an unrelated warning.

First check your document, using "tar tvzf thedoc.kpr", you should see a "maindoc.xml"
and a "documentinfo.xml" at least.

Then try with another document (create one from scratch, save, load).

Finally, well, I can't see what's happening here with so little information.
The best would be to recompile KOffice from sources, to get debug output.
