@Nattawat it sounds like you have something wrong with your EnergyPlus input file at line number 616, judging by beginning of first Severe error line. The error messages go on to say the issue is related to a Thermostat object and a GlobalGeometryRules object, but these two usually aren't related, so it's difficult to know exactly what's wrong with the input file. Can you post a link to your EnergyPlus input file ending in .idf?

@Nattawat the GlobalGeometryRules object determines how corners of surfaces are located.

After looking over your attached IDF, it looks like you are using "special characters" (characters that are not ASCII) that EnergyPlus cannot handle, such as the last input field setting Cooling Setpoint Temperature Schedule Name in the code block below.

ThermostatSetpoint:DualSetpoint,
  Thermostat Setpoint Dual Setpoint 1,    !- Name
  Heating,                                !- Heating Setpoint Temperature Schedule Name
  แอร์ออฟฟิส;         !- Cooling Setpoint Temperature Schedule Name

To fix this, you will need to reset any input fields using these special characters with their English equivalent. You can read more about special characters in OpenStudio and EnergyPlus in a related Unmet Hours post.

EnergyPlus can handle UTF-8 input, however, there were a couple bugs which prevented EnergyPlus from parsing it correctly. These were addressed in this pull request and will be included in the EnergyPlus 9.1.0 release.
