Problem running baseline measure in openstudio when cooling tower present for LEED v3 model

Hello everyone,

I´m trying to simulate a LEED v3 model for a 7 story and 4 basement office building. I set up the proposed model and have it running, includes vrf´s, unitary systems for IT rooms and a plant loop with 2 cooling towers, it does though give me warnings about out of range temperatures at the cooling towers (I´ve tried everything I could think off to fix this, unsuccessfully). I am trying to run the baseline measure in openstudio, I have only been able to run the measure if I completely remove de HVAC system. Whenever a cooling tower is present in the model, the baseline measure fails with the error shown in the image. C:\fakepath\Sin título.png

Can anyone please help me solve this, please?
