EXCEPTION -> zetaMin > 0.0, in file: .\Tables.h

Hi everybody
I'm trying to simulate the cases of "Benchmarking of 2D Hydraulic Modelling Packages" using geometries created by the software SMS and I cannot understand the following error/exception when I run the simulation:

EXCEPTION -> zetaMin > 0.0, in file: .\Tables.h on line 2027, Version: 2.6 R2968,

As you can see in the following files attached, I was able to simulate the TEST1 case using the "meshtestuno.2dm" geometry (generated with SMS too) which seems to be similar to the "meshstef.2dm" geometry used in case TEST2.
How can I solve this problem?

Files:
TEST1 (https://www.dropbox.com/s/1t88i4z5l52dp … 1.rar?dl=0)
TEST2 (https://www.dropbox.com/s/eskv911295yn4 … 2.rar?dl=0)

Please help me!!

I've understand that the problem is not in the geometries files, because the software can read it well.
However the problem seems to be related with the condition Hydrograph and the relative slope. I've modified the slope value to 0.33 cause in the previous file it had a wrong input value, but the problem it's the same.
Hope I will get an answer.
Regards

Re: EXCEPTION -> zetaMin > 0.0, in file: .\Tables.h

I found the error.
It comes from using a minimum_water_depth = 0.
In a simulation with a input hydrograph a value of minimum_water_depth>0 must be used.
Hope that this post could help someone.
Thank you
