Hello my Name is Adityo Dharmanto, I need your Help, There is an Error when i Run the simulation in OpenStudio Radiance. I make the simple building model in the Sketchup Make, and i export as OSM file. when i run the simulation theres an error, this is the Error Source.

Great, thanks. OK so I ran your model here on OpenStudio 1.11.1 and it ran fine. If possible, I'd recommend getting the latest "iteration release" (currently 1.11.3) which you can grab here. If there's any way to put your entire run directory (from the failure) on Dropbox , I'd love to take a look at the logs. If not, no big deal, just grab a newer OS release and try again. Should work for ya on 1.11 or greater.

Thankyou for your help solution. After installed the Lastest OpenStudio release (1.11.3), the simulation run well (but Still with some warning). But now i can see the result, so i can sleep well tonight hahaha.

This is my Resultlog, i hope you may see my result simulation. Maybe you can give another advice to my model project. https://www.dropbox.com/s/d9tv50rzm0d...

Thanks alot

This really should be a comment to the answer provided already. Thanks for the feedback though! Also my request was for the old run directory from the failed run using v1.10.x (in its entirety) so I could poke though all the logs and results files to see how (poorly) the Radiance version error was handled. No biggie though, glad the new version is working for you.

First, I'd recommend getting the latest major release (1.11.0), or later. The fact that you have both some installation of Radiance and Daysim makes me think this is a version issue. OpenStudio's access to the included Radiance version was made a little more robust in versions 1.11.0 and greater. Failing that, there is likely a problem with the model itself; could you post the model (.osm) somewhere (e.g. Dropbox) so I can download it and take a look?

thankyou rpg777, for your respond Sure, i'l try to use the latest major release 1.11. Beside that, this is my Model. I do the sketchup model same like the reference tutorial. https://www.dropbox.com/s/db6obpm5mjo...

there is a problem in the model? when i make the model in the sketchup make instead using the sketchup pro? Thankyou
