EnergyPlus doesn't like special characters. I remember someone had a similar issue for weather file for Izmir. Are you using Izmir's weather file? Can you share the file with me so we can see if there is an easy way to get this fixed.

Can you copy/paste the whole path where the weather file is located.

Can be that there are special characters?
