This happens when the code is being run outside the planner project.
To be safe, use (with-emacs-wiki-project planner-project ...) like so:

(with-temp-buffer
 (with-emacs-wiki-project ...))

Note also that (planner-mode) by itself might not shift a buffer
successfully to planner-mode. The workaround is to

(let ((emacs-wiki-project planner-project))
  ...
  (planner-mode))

Am not quite sure why this is the case, but this needs fixing in the future.
