Similar to this previous post? I'd check your model for missing space type properties. In a nutshell, the CreateBaselineBuilding Measure has OpenStudio-Standards as a gem dependency. The gem is tripping over missing space type properties.

EDIT: Double-check space type properties (under "Space Types" tab)?

Similar to this previous post? I'd check your model for missing space type properties. properties:

  • Standards Template
  • Standards Building Type
  • Standards Space Type

As stated in the video, it is not enough to simply assign space types to spaces. Assigned space types must have valid Standards entries, as show below.

In a nutshell, the CreateBaselineBuilding Measure has OpenStudio-Standards as a gem dependency. The gem itself (not the measure) is tripping over missing space type properties, which in turn may be generating your more severe error.error. The warnings are clear enough: "template" is OK, yet "building_type" and "space_type" entries are unfortunately nilled.
