Radiance OpenStudio Error
Radiance problem
I used OpenStudio Application 1.1.0 with Radiance for a simple case that encountered an error and failed. Then to ensure, I used the “measure_test_model.osm” in the radiance_measure folder from BCL and also other cases, but I always encountered the following error. I checked the Unmet Hours and google for the same problem, but nobody has reported this error.
Any suggestions? I appreciate your consideration.

Update: I have checked different versions of OS (OS Application 1, 1.1, and 1.2) with different laptops. I also installed Strawberry Perl. But I have always got the same Failed result. Is it possible that there might be a problem with the last radiance_measure?
You can check this link. It seems that the latest Radiance Measure in the BCL has a problem. I think you should use the method used in the mentioned link.
