The :tangle keyword requires an argument, one of 'yes', 'no', or a path.
But I think your error message (which I can reproduce) is due to using
'bash' instead of 'shell' for the language of the source code block.
This works for me:
#+BEGIN_SRC shell :var HELLO="world" :tangle bash.sh
echo $HELLO
#+END_SRC
hth,
Tom
