    Hi Josef,
     
    I wonder if the message about "_controls.acf" is the problem here? I think that this dialog box assumes/depends that you have previously ran a simulation with the model in this working directory while the Controls plugin is loaded. When the Controls plugin is loaded and you run a simulation (either run it, or just do "files only") the simulation process produces an extra file named <event>_controls.acf. That file must be put into the proper field when exporting.
     
    So this is one possible problem that you might face here. I would check that you have the file in the working folder AND you have specified the exact name of this file in the dialog box - that might be the problem.
    Good luck,
    Kent

    Hi Kent,
     
    thanks for reply,
     
    I am using for fmu export Simulate/FMI Interface/General FMU Export so problem with incorrect names should not happen.
     
    Creation of FMU fails somewhere during process. Subfolder with correct name is created. adm file is copied, acf file has correct name but is empty.
     
    XML event (dcf is from shared database) is just copied to private database. Event is created as File Driven Events, Analysis Mode: Event Only
