When I am trying to run measures, I get the following error: SWIG director type mismatch in output value of type "bool"

I watched the youtube videos on running measures (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AllpY...), and have appropriate inputs for space and zones, but the measure still won't run. I am running a model that came out of Asset Score. I am adding a some screenshots below. The first is the error that I am getting when I try and run the measure. image description The second is a screenshot of the spaces tab showing space types assigned to each of the spaces.

@llisell you can refer to other posts about SWIG errors here and here. In summary, you'll need to share more information about:

  • what measure you're trying to apply
  • where you got that measure from (if not the BCL)
  • any other error/warning messages from trying to apply the measure

@Aaron Boranian I am trying to run the "CreateBaselineBuilding" measure from BCL to create an ASHRAE 90.1 baseline building. Also added a screenshot of the output screen to the post.

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 itself (not the measure) is tripping over missing space type properties, which in turn may be generating your more severe error.

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

@Denis Bourgeois this doesn't appear to be the problem, all of my spaces have space types assigned, I added a screenshot above.

@llisell : I edited my initial answer. Could you double-check those space types ("Space Types" tab)?
