`reduced_potential` raising exception?

I tried this code:

import simtk.openmm as openmm
import openmmtools.testsystems as ts
import openmmtools.cache as cache
import openmmtools.states as states
import simtk.unit as unit

alanine_ts = ts.AlanineDipeptideExplicit()

thermodynamic_state = states.ThermodynamicState(alanine_ts.system, temperature = 300.0*unit.kelvin)
sampler_state = states.SamplerState(alanine_ts.positions, box_vectors=alanine_ts.system.getDefaultPeriodicBoxVectors())

context, integrator = cache.global_context_cache.get_context(thermodynamic_state)
sampler_state.apply_to_context(context, ignore_velocities=True)
print(thermodynamic_state.reduced_potential(sampler_state))

And I get the following exception:

Thanks! That seems to work!

Hmm. Let me see if I can reproduce it!
