You don't need an AirLoopHVAC:OutdoorAirSystem at all.

The problem is that your loop is probably autosized, and it's getting sized to a zero flow. That can happen for a variety of reasons.

Check that the zone you serve does have a high cooling load (check the equipment and the schedules attached to it). Check that the zone also has appropriate thermostat setpoint schedules (eg 40F heating / 80F cooling). Also double check the Airloop Sizing:System and the zone Sizing:Zone inputs. And check the SetpointManager you placed on your AirLoopHVAC.

Note that if the only thing you're trying to cool down is a single zone, I'd suggest not using an AirLoopHVAC at all, but one of the ZoneHVAC object that can use a Coil:Cooling:Water (PTAC for example, or 4 pipe FCU)
