It looks like you left a report open and the option string saved in your state file has a bad value. The state file has the same name as your .gnucash file with a .gcm extension tacked on (i.e. “my-book.gnucash.gcm”) and is located in GNC_DATA_HOME/books (see https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Configuration_Locations#GNC_DATA_HOME for where GNC_DATA_HOME is on your system).
You can either delete or edit the state file. If you delete it you’ll lose all of your open tabs and UI customizations, so you’ll probably prefer to edit it. Open it in your favorite text editor (e.g. emacs, nano, vi) and go to the bottom. Each open window has a [Window N] section containing a [Page N] section for each open tab. Report tabs will have the PageType GncPluginPageReport. Find the one with an option value (1530334800 . 0) and delete it, renumbering the following [Page N] sections so that the numbering is consecutive. Save the file and start GnuCash.
