That error usually means that the Radiance model translation failed, most likely because the OpenStudio model isn't properly configured yet for use with Radiance. (The most common reason is that daylighting controls aren't assigned to thermal zones.)

I downloaded your project (thank you for the link), but I do not see in the run log any references to what specifically went wrong, or what is missing, which is unusual. I would double-check that you have at least one space/zone/daylighting control/illuminance map are all properly configured, as described here:

The above referenced page is ancient, but the requirements still stand. If any of these items are amiss, the translation will fail and you will get this error.
