Hi All,
I have tested the .idf in the windows version of e+ and it runs fine. When i try and run it from the command line on the mac version of e+ it fails. I am new to running from the command line it gets to "Beginning Primary Simulation" then I get the fatal error. Does anyone know why it might be failing
When I check the error file I get this vague error:
===== Final Error Summary =====
*** The following error categories occurred. Consider correcting or noting. *** Loads Initialization did not Converge *** ..1) very high thermal mass such as very thick concrete (solution: increase max number of warmup *** .. days in the BUILDING object); *** ..2) moderate mass and inadequate space conditioning such that the building keeps getting warmer *** .. and warmer on successive days (solution: add HVAC, check building thermal properties, *** .. check if infiltration is included, make sure HVAC properly controlled); *** ..3) a soil layer modeled below the concrete slab - (solution remove this layer and read about *** .. ground temperatures in the Auxiliary Programs document). *** ..4) unreasonable (too small) limits in the BUILDING object for temperature (.4 default) or *** .. loads tolerances (.04 default) *** Nominally Unused Constructions *** ..The nominally unused constructions warning is provided to alert you to potential conditions that can cause *** ..extra time during simulation.

Thank you in advance!
