[CP2K-user] Error while attempting to read the Hessian file

Dear all, 

I have optimized a geometry that resulted in two imaginary frequencies. As 
a first attempt to get rid of these frequencies, I prepared a geometry 
optimization job where the Hessian is read at the start. 

Unfortunately, I get an error related to the reading of the file.  The 
following is printed in the standard error:

forrtl: severe (24): end-of-file during read, unit 1, file 
/path/H-ZSM-5-Al-T12-Hessian-1.hess

The part of the input file where the Hessian is read is as follows:
&GEO_OPT
     TYPE  MINIMIZATION
     OPTIMIZER  BFGS
     MAX_ITER  10000
     MAX_DR     3.0000000000000001E-03
     MAX_FORCE     4.4999999999999999E-04
     RMS_DR     1.5000000000000000E-03
     RMS_FORCE     2.9999999999999997E-04
     STEP_START_VAL  0
       &BFGS
       TRUST_RADIUS     2.5000000000000000E-01
       USE_MODEL_HESSIAN  T
       USE_RAT_FUN_OPT  F
       RESTART_HESSIAN  T
       *RESTART_FILE_NAME H-ZSM-5-Al-T12-Hessian-1.hess*
       &END BFGS
&END GEO_OPT

Am I doing something wrong or is the Hessian file corrupted?
How can I proceed to troubleshoot the issue?

Thanks in advance for your help. 
Regards,
Torstein
