@katsuya.obara thanks for sending the file. As you pointed out the OSM does export to IDF, but doesn't make it to EnergyPlus. I walked through the run directory and inside of "1-UserScript-0" I tried to open the last "out.osm" and I got this error.
Model with Version 1.14.0 IDD is not valid to draft strictness level. The collection is INVALID at strictness level 'Draft', because of the errors: Field level data error of type DataType . Error is in an object of type 'OS:Output:Variable', named '{fec8d4df-903c-45be-852c-2ce4e75cef82}', in field 4. Additional information about the error type: field-level data is of an incorrect type.
And here is what the variable object looks like
OS:Output:Variable, {c621e9e9-84a8-42bf-809c-c5dc6f1e527e}, !- Handle Output Variable 4, !- Name , !- Key Value Fluid Heat Exchanger Loop Supply Side Mass Flow Rate,hourly, !- Variable Name hourly; !- Reporting Frequency
This is a bug in OpenStudio, it should not let you set a value that makes the model invalid, I just filed an issue here. Behind the scenes, since the model can't be opened it can't be exported to an IDF, and the simulation fails un-gracefully.
The good news is you can fix this by updating your measure arguments shown below. There is a pull down choice for frequency so you only need to provide the variable name. Remove the the comma and "hourly" and it runs. You need to do this for all four instances of that measure.
I did check that a generally bad string like "This is not th variable you are looking for" doesn't hurt anything, it was only the special character that caused the issue.
Just as a heads up you have a bunch of severe errors like this waiting for you in the E+ run, that stop it from completing.
* Severe * Temperature (low) out of bounds [-107.43] for zone="2F UPS RM 2", for surface="SURFACE 169"
