Hi All,
I am actually facing the same issues with GenOpt.
The error that I am obtaining when I try to run the first tutorial (GenOpt\example\energyplus\7_0_0\GPSHookeJeeves) is as follows:
Assigning 4 threads for simulations. Initialize. java.lang.Exception:
Exception in executing the simulation program
Simulation working directory : 'C:\Users\SambuKS\Documents\GenOpt\example\energyplus\7_0_0\GPSHookeJeeves\tmp-genopt-run-1' Command string : 'cmd /C ""C:\Program Files (x86)\EnergyPlusV7-0-0\RunEPlus.bat" "singleZonePurchAir" "USA_IL_Chicago-OHare.Intl.AP.725300_TMY3""' Exception message:

Current command String : 'cmd /C ""C:\Program Files (x86)\EnergyPlusV7-0-0\RunEPlus.bat" "singleZonePurchAir" "USA_IL_Chicago-OHare.Intl.AP.725300_TMY3""'. Error stream of simulation program : The system cannot find the path specified.
GenOpt terminated with error.
Looks like it is looking for Eplus.bat Version 7.....
I have updated the E+ version by using the IDFVersionUpdater. From v7 to v8.3 .
In addition, as there is no 'RuenEplusPaarallel.bat' file at the 'energyplus7_0_0' folder I copied one from 'energyplus5_0_0' folder.
-I have also considered to change the weather file versions to the latest ones from E+ v8.3.3.
Any suggestions???
Best Regards,
