Kent, Thanks for the tip! I moved all of the files recently, relinked the DDY file, but forgot to relink the EPW file. It's running now with no hang-ups and has completed.

New OS user. I have run basic simulations on this model previously with success. Today I exported an .IDF for EnergyPlus, which has caused failures on all of my simulations since that .IDF export. Any help will be appreciated. Below is the output text.
