JitteryCoyote63 I think I failed explaining myself.

1. I think the problem of the controller is that you are interacting (aka changing hyper parameters)) with a Task created using new SDK version, with an older SDK version. specifically we added section names to the hyper parameters, and only new version of the SDK is aware of it.
   Make sense?
2. Regrading the actual problem. It seems like this is somehow related to the first one, the task at run time is using an older SDK version , and I think this is why it is getting None instead of the value. What do you think?
