This means you tried to produce the tags-tree agenda view from a buffer
that is not an org-mode buffer.
The {tags/occur/todo}-tree views are special because they need to be
called from an Org buffer, they are always computed locally.
This was not very clear from the documentation so I added a note.

Yes. Either using tags-tree or any other way to limit the buffer to the
headlines you want (C-c / comes to mind) and then exporting only the
visible parts of the buffer (C-c C-e v ...)
