Looking at the error, it looks like you added a water use connection to your model but didn't add any water use equipment to that connection. Does it look that way when you view your model in the OpenStudio application? If so then just delete the water use connection or add equipment to it. If you think it is modeled correctly then maybe something else is going on.

In fact, I did use a water use connection to my model, than to that connection I associate a water use equipmant... I don`t know what is the name that the program requires, as I already characterized that water use equipment. I am tempted to think that it is a bug in the program... could that be the problem?

My model contains a water use connection with a water use equipment (shower)...

I can't understand what is the [Water Use Equipment 1 Name] that de program requires...

And I don't know if that is the problem that cause the crash in the simulation.

I apreciate your effort to help me with my problem... thank you very much. But could you see any other solution?

Would you mind sharing your model? You can email it to me at kyle.benne@nrel.gov. Shouldn't take long to figure out what is going on with a model in hand.
