[TRNSYS-users] GenOpt and trnsys17 problem

[mcdowell at tess-inc.com]

Ivan -

The simulation is not finding your building file. The newer version of 
GenOpt runs everything in subfolders to allow for parallel execution.  
If you are using GenOpt to modify the bui file it is probably writing 
the file to the subfolder and you are going to have the figure out the 
correct path for the Assign statement in your deck.  If you are using 
one bui file for all of the optimization runs make sure that the path in 
the Assign statement for the building file correctly points to your 
building file.

Regards,

Tim
