It looks like there is a problem with using the design specification object in HVACTemplate:Zone:VAV. The design specification object name is not included in the Sizing:Zone object. Edit the *.expidf file using a text editor. Search for the Sizing:Zone objects and add the name of the DesignSpecification:OutdoorAir object in the correct field (field 10) . Then change the name of that file so it has the idf extension (e.g., MyFile.idf) and run the simulation. Or you could change the file name first and make this correction using the IDFEditor from EP-Launch.
