Invalid weather file object when epw_file is assigned via the API

edit

I am experiencing a strange behaviour when I assign the weather file using the SDK.

I am geneerating the model using the SDK and I assign the weather file as follows

(First, I copy all the files in working_dir)

weather_file_name = "USA_CA_San.Francisco-Presidio.994016_TMYx.2007-2021.epw"
weather_file_path = File.join("weather", weather_file_name)
FileUtils.cp(weather_file_path, File.join(working_dir, weather_file_name))
epw_file = OpenStudio::EpwFile.load(OpenStudio::Path.new(weather_file_path), true)
OpenStudio::Model::WeatherFile::setWeatherFile(model, epw_file.get)

I run the simulation with

workflow_path = File.join(working_dir, "workflow.osw")
`openstudio run -w #{workflow_path}`

Everything works fine and the correct weather file is used in the simulation. Also, the content of the osm model shows the lines

  Sunday;                                 !- Start Day of Week

However, if I save the model with model.save(path, true) and I open it with the Openstudio application, I get this error

Any suggestion on what I am doing wrong? I had a look at the change location measure. Do I need to do something similar and update all the properties of the weather object?
