When try to upgrade 'Az' modules, encounter an error "Object reference not set to an instance of an object."

[caiwan-msft]

Detailed errors:
Get-AzAutomationModule : Object reference not set to an instance of an object. At line:314 char:36 + $CurrentAutomationModuleList = & $GetAutomationModule ` + ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + CategoryInfo : CloseError: (:) [Get-AzAutomationModule], NullReferenceException + FullyQualifiedErrorId : Microsoft.Azure.Commands.Automation.Cmdlet.GetAzureAutomationModule

This issue has been reproduced in global azure. Please help have a check. Great appreciation!

What input parameters did you provide?

I think I used the upgrade script. If I can reproduce it again, I will come to update it. Thanks.

I can reliably reproduce. Using the following parameters. I had to cancel it after an hour.

AUTOMATIONACCOUNTNAME | "automationname"
RESOURCEGROUPNAME | "rgname"
AZUREENVIRONMENT | "AzureUSGovernment"
AZUREMODULECLASS | "Az"

Apologies. My error is on line 388, the code looked similar and I conflated the two.
