OpenStudio Open Error

I am modeling a project using sketchup (addin with openstudio, and energy plus). When I complete the drawing for the project, I cannot open the open studio for further work. Can someone help me with it?

Here is what it shows:

Failed to open files at XXXXXXX.osm.

Details: The collection is INVALID at strictness level 'Draft', because of the errors: Field level data error of type DataType . Error is in an object of type 'OS:ThermalZone', named 'Garage', in field 2. Additional information about the error type: field-level data is of an incorrect type.

I tried to rebuilt the thermal zones by "openstudio user script," which should not have any problems with thermal zones. However, it still cannot open .osm files.
