I am trying to frame this post frame building and when placing the gable end trusses I run into an issue. I would like for the truss to be attached to the outside of the poles on the same plane as the the wall girts in the attached image.

When moving it to the appropriate position I get this error message.

BuildTruss.cpp(197): Warning #272003066

"Roof and ceiling planes cannot be found or they are too close together, so cannot make truss."

Can anyone tell me why this is happening and what I can do to remedy it?

Also tried uploading the plan file but failed due to error code 200?

Like the message says, there is no ceiling out there. First, place it where it works, then lock the truss envelope. Then move it to where you'd like.
