SBEM error file

Post by Jonnymac »

I have been running a model with success for SBEM calculations. Changed a few settings during the day, templates etc, now the calculation does not finish and it does not display the "view error file" for some reason. it just open word pad but it is blank. There are a few warnings when the SBEM is calculating, about unconditioned zones with an activity which is conditioned.

How can you tell why the model is now not working!!

When an error is encountered during the SBEM calc it generates an error log and offers to open this up for you but for some reason if you say yes it seems to default into Wordpad and opens a blank file. If IES can fix this we will.

In the meantime you can find the *.err file in your project folder (\Regs\PartL2\SBEM\BRUKL), open this with notepad to see the keywords that caused the calc to fail.
