Follow-up Comment #1:

IIUC, `octave-cli.exe` shouldn't be run directly unless you make sure that the
necessary environment variables are set globally.

Instead you should start the CLI either with the `octave.vbs` in OCTAVE_HOME
or with `octave.bat` in the bin directory. Either of those will set the
necessary environment variables.

Does the error still occur in that case?
