CO046 Error when modelling OWSJ with web members defined as "truss".

I'm trying to analyze an existing OWSJ using S-Frame 2022. I've modelled the top and bottom chords as the "beam" member type and the webs as the "truss" member type. When I go to run the joist, the solver produces an error code CO046 - "unremovable unstable dof..". I'm wondering if I can get some help to what is going on. Maybe I should actually be defining the web members as the "beam" type since they are technically welded to the double angles?
