This is the error you will get if, when copying an /etc/salt/master from http://docs.saltstack.com/en/latest/ref/configuration/examples.html#configuration-examples-master, you accidentally also start copying the example minion folder. To fix it, just open /etc/salt/master and remove line 730 and everything after it.
