Error running Forward Dynamics Full Body Lumbar Spine Model (FBLS)

I am trying to figure out the changes in motion due to a change in muscle forces. For this purpose I am trying to run Forward Dynamics on the Full-body Musculoskeletal Model of the Lumbar Spine https://simtk.org/projects/fullbodylumbar/.

I scale the model, run the inverse kinematics, RRA, and static optimization (SO) before running the forward dynamics tool. For the forward dynamics, I use the controls and states from the SO results and actuators from both the RRA and SO folders.

However, the model crumples up and I get the following errors:

(nr=870 nc=765)
Found 870 state vectors with time stamps ranging
from 0 to 0.855667.

What should I do to fix these?
