Failing to run simulation when loading DOE Midrise Apartment Prototype in openstudio

Openstudio version 2.7.0;

EnergyPlus version 8.9.0;

I loaded DOE prototype in openstudio, but unable to run analysis. Steps shown below:

"Apply measures==>whole building==>Create DOE prototype building==>MidriseApartment, 90.1.2013, ASHRAE 169-2006-1A"

That only happens on MidriseApartment, when I load other kind of prototypes, such as StandAloneRetail or HighriseApartment, it works fine.

Anyone knows why that happens?

Thanks!

I've tried 2.7.1 version, but still doesn't work.

Steps:

File==>New==>Save==>Components&Measures==>Apply Measures Now==>Whole building==>Space Types==>Create DOE prototype building==>MidriseApartment, 90.1.2013, ASHRAE 169-2006-1A==>Run Simulation==>Run

Then it shows Failed.

what does the error say? When the measure runs, it does a sizing run to set equipment efficiencies. When you go to your local temp folder that houses the sizing run, what does the energyplus error file say?

After I click the run button, it starts to run but it shows failure. In OpenStudio box, it says:

@Li_Liu same for me. Did you ever figure it out?
