What E+ version do you have installed, and where?

It seems GenOpt is trying to run a very old version of E+, 3.1.0.

I'm assuming you are trying to run the example file in GenOpt\example\energyplus\3_1_0\GPSHookeJeeves

If you open RunEPlusParallel.bat, you'll see the apth to E+ is hardcoded:

set program_path=C:\Program Files\EnergyPlusV3-1-0\

Unless you have E+ 3.1.0 installed in the above directory (which is extremely unlikely), it can't work!

Update

Considering there was a similar question asked, I've put together a tutorial on how to run GenOpt. Refer to my answer here or my Github directly
