My model keeps failing at the EnergyPlus simulation. Please Help!

I've got this project that I need to complete within the next 24 hours and it keeps failing when it comes up to the EnergyPlus simulation. I tried previous saved files of my model and it fails at the same point so I have no clue what I'm doing wrong. Any help would be appreciated!

This is the output that I am currently getting. It stops at 75% every single time.
