error running simulation

Hi,

I am trying to get familiar with Openstudio. My supervisor sent a geometry to me( it can be seen only in 3d view , can not be edited) and I tried to run this project for energy plus, (energy modelling ) with some deafult values and ideal air loads but I did not get a succesfull simulation results. It always failed. I dont know it has an easy solution or not because ,as i said before, I dont have any experience in this program before. Thanks in advance. This is the full text of the error: [23:28:51.948620 ERROR] undefined method getString' for nil:NilClass

error running simulation

Hi,

I am trying to get familiar with Openstudio. My supervisor sent a geometry to me (it can be seen only in 3d view, can not be edited) and I tried to run this project for EnergyPlus, (energy modeling) with some default values and ideal air loads but I did not get successful simulation results. It always failed. I don't know it has an easy solution or not because, as I said before, I don't have any experience in this program before. Thanks in advance. This is the full text of the error:
