Openstudio version 2.7.0;

EnergyPlus version 8.9.0;

I loaded DOE prototype in openstudio, but unable to run analysis. Steps shown below:

"Apply measures==>whole building==>Create DOE prototype building==>MidriseApartment, 90.1.2013, ASHRAE 169-2006-1A"

That only happens on MidriseApartment, when I load other kind of prototypes, such as StandAloneRetail or HighriseApartment, it works fine.

Anyone knows why that happens?

Thanks!

this is working for me with OpenStudio 2.7.1. can you try that version?

I've tried 2.7.1 version, but still doesn't work.

Steps:

File==>New==>Save==>Components&Measures==>Apply Measures Now==>Whole building==>Space Types==>Create DOE prototype building==>MidriseApartment, 90.1.2013, ASHRAE 169-2006-1A==>Run Simulation==>Run

Then it shows Failed.

what does the error say? When the measure runs, it does a sizing run to set equipment efficiencies. When you go to your local temp folder that houses the sizing run, what does the energyplus error file say?

After I click the run button, it starts to run but it shows failure. In OpenStudio box, it says:

Initializing workflow.

@Li_Liu same for me. Did you ever figure it out?
