This _might_ be a duplicate of #8730?

Hey @kylelaker, yes this is the same cause and I am currently working on fixing this; hopefully this will be solved soon ! To 'fix this' you can give these variables a default value or set it in the command line. I'm going to close this issue in favor of #8730.
