[EnergyPlus_Support] Mass flow rate problems using energy plus 1.2.2

Dear all,

I calculated a system with the new version of energy plus 1.2.2., 
which was created with/for the old version of energy plus 1.2.1, 
Using version 1.2.1 there haven `t been any relevant error massages, 
but using version 1.2.2 the following error massage appears:

** Warning ** Error -- Mass Flow Rate Calculation in Plant 
Loop=CHILLED WATER LOOP, Outlet and Inlet differ by more than 
tolerance.
   **   ~~~   ** Loop inlet node=CN010, flow rate=7.740642072192259E-
002
   **   ~~~   ** Loop outlet node=CN001, flow rate=0.154812841443845
   ** Severe  ** Inlet parameters for plant demand side splitter are 
not physically possible
   **   ~~~   ** Problem in input for plant demand side CHILLED 
WATER LOOP
   **   ~~~   ** The maximum flow out of the splitter is less than 
the minimum inlet flow
   **   ~~~   ** Flow rate inputs for the loop do not match flow 
requirements of the various branches/components
   **   ~~~   ** Check your flow rates and make sure that flow 
balances between the splitter inlet and outlets

I already controlled all my nodes, branches, mixers, splitters and 
the order of the branches in the branch lists and in the mixers/ 
splitters. The results were ok.
After this I controlled the mass flow rates in the chilled water 
loop, which is connected with two condenser loops by two chillers. 
(Those chillers are controlled by two HEAT EXCHANGER:HYDRONIC:FREE 
COOLING- objects), but  I did not find any error.
May you have any idea, what the problem could be or could you give 
me a hint to resolve this problem?

Best regards,

Patrik
