Re: [EnergyPlus_Support] need your valuable comment





Version 3.0 changed a lot of object names, if you are trying to run the V2 input file in a later version, you need to transition your file to that version.  You can download the transition files from the helpdesk ( http://energyplus.helpserve.com) and put them into the MultipleTransition folder.  Then execute IDF Converter utility to transition the file.

Does the EP-Launch say "batch file cannot be created" or "temporary files cannot be created"?  If really the latter and you are running on Vista or Windows 7, a hint:
EnergyPlus has no problems running on Vista computers if it is run directly by executing the EnergyPlus.exe file assuming you have prepared the in.idf and in.epw files at the same folder. There were some issues running earlier versions of EP-Launch, but most have been fixed for the latest version of EP-Launch.
If EnergyPlus was installed at a user folder like C:\EnergyPlusV3-0-0, there should be no problems running EP-Launch. If EnergyPlus was installed at a windows system folder like ?C:\Program Files\EnergyPlusV3-0-0?, you have to run EP-Launch every time with administrator rights by right clicking the EP-Launch.exe file and choose ?Run as Administrator?.

Another way is to create a shortcut to EPLaunch and change settings appropriately.

If it is "batch files cannot be created", use the options menu in EP-Launch to turn off "create batch files" -- it's on the Options, Miscellaneous tab, uncheck "Create batch files to run EnergyPlus"
