Error when running E+

Hi all,
when I run this multizone model without deconstructing faces, E+ runs well.
But when I deconstruct the solids to assign materials and apertures I get this error message even though the model is valid:
Runtime error (EncoderFallbackException): ‘ascii’ codec can’t encode character ‘\u2026’ in position 110: ordinal not in range(128)
Traceback:
line 193, in script
Could anybody help me to find the mistake?
Thanks in advance.

Thanks anyway.

Hi @PatriciaEdithCampore ,

Thanks for reporting and I would consider this a bug in our code that’s related to the character encodings that you have on your machine. This is not something that should block you from running the simulation and I have a fix ready on my machine that’s getting the simulation to run.

I’ll post back here once I update the component with the fix.

FYI, you probably are already aware of this but the model in your file was not passing validation:


But, if you correct some of those interior constructions, it can simulate correctly.

FYI, @PatriciaEdithCampore ,

I have merged a fix to the component that will avoid this encoding error in the future:

You can get the updated “Model To OSM” component now with the LB Versioner.
