Hello! After updating org-mode, when I do the below:

  1. Run a custom org-agenda =C-c a w= that has a column view format. (This works correctly)
  2. Open a different buffer
  3. Re-run org-agenda

I get the error =Wrong type argument: markerp, nil=.

Using the debugger, I found the error occurred in =org-colview.el=. I no longer have the error when using the below workaround.

Thanks for reporting! The reproducer is not sufficient to replicate the
bug on my side, but the code can indeed fail with the error you are
seeing.

I applied an alternative patch onto bugfix:
https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/emacs/org-mode.git/commit/?id=bd3705c05

Let me know if the patch fixes the problem for you.
