PAT 2.9.0 Analysis Error,

My PAT tool seems to have issues... I have been getting anywhere from no errors and it would be "stuck" running for hours (when it would run in about 15 minutes last month, to occasional errors of "The SQLite database failed to open".

So far, I have tried:

  • Running different projects that had no issues last month (tested this on 6 different projects ran fine last month). Result would be an error as described above without a .err file.
  • Uninstall/reinstall Openstudio 2.9.0
  • Troubleshooting using this link. PAT has stopped producing this error but will fail with an analysis error without a .err file.

The only solution so far is copying/pasting the files into my C:/ Drive and running it there. However, I didn't need to do this a few weeks ago. What changed?
