Radiance simulation fails in OpenStudio v1.9.4

I am trying to use the Radiance Measure in OpenStudio on a simple test case building with only two zones. I have placed 1 daylight sensor, glare sensor, and illuminance map in each zone and successfully get results when running a simulation in OpenStudio without the Radiance Measure. When I apply the Radiance Measure I get the following error:

I have referred to a similar question posted here that states an error similar to mine could be caused by having energyplus installed in a directory other than the default. I have EnergyPlus v8.4.0 installed as a standalone software on my computer in the default location and tried switching the simulation engine to this installation as shown in the image below but receive the same error. Is there something I am doing wrong? I am testing this on a simple 2 zone building for now but I will need to run this simulation for a building with 15 perimeter zones, and 5 interior zones with skylights.
