[EnergyPlus_Support] RUNEP.BAT problem

[Shady Attia <chadiattia@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I included some lines in my idf that runs some parametric simulations. When I run the simulation from EP-Launch it works. However, when I run it from RUNEP.BAT it does not work.

I receive this message:

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Program Version,EnergyPlus 6.0.0.023, 24-Nov-10 6:42 PM,IDD_Version 6.0.0.023

   ** Severe  ** Parametric objects are found in the IDF File.

   **  Fatal  ** Program Terminates: The ParametricPreprocessor program has not been run.

   ...Summary of Errors that led to program termination:

   ..... Reference severe error count=1

   ..... Last severe error=Parametric objects are found in the IDF File.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

My first lines in the Batch file:

SET epin=C:\EnergyPlusV6-0-0\Box

SET epout=C:\EnergyPlusV6-0-0\Box

SET epwthr=C:\EnergyPlusV6-0-0\WeatherData\EGY_Alexandria_ETMY.epw

SET eptype=EP

SET pausing=N

SET epinext=idf

SET maxcol=250

SET convESO=N

SET procCSV=N

Can anyone help?

best,
