I was having this same issue. I found that the issue was caused because I had set the front page to display a static page for the front page and another for the posts page. (Set in Reading Settings)
However, my posts page had been deleted. In this case because we decided not to have a posts page any more. The URL variables were trying to switch the home page view to the posts page that did not exist.
I fixed this by updating my template to use front-page.php (rather than a page template) and changed the setting so that the front page displays Your latest posts.
This solution worked for me because I did not need the posts page.
