It is a good practice to have some sort of converged model to help troubleshooting. The error messages on unconverged models can be very difficult to interpret. Some steps i would take (trial and error method):
1) Set all side draws to 0.1 m3/h rate then try to converge the column with all product to the bottom. If converged, add in side draws one at a time until column breaks again to better troubleshoot.
2) If step 1 gives no convergence at all, then reduce the number of stages significantly until you get convergence. You may have to go down to 4 or 5 stages total. Once you get convergence, then stepwise add features back into your model.

Column convergence can be tricky. Start simple to get a converged run so you can make sense of the error messages. This may mean cutting down to a top and bottom product and simplifying the pumparound as a duty applied to the tray. If you have not gathered much simulation experience yet, this looks like a complex column to start with. You must have vapor and liquid on every stage. Adjust your specs as needed to get convergence. Once you have a converged run, you can better interpret the column profiles and make spec changes to get the model you really want.
Your error message indicates two liquid phases so you have to account for that in your thermo method, a decanter, or adjusting your stream composition and conditions in some way.

Heat/Spec is out of tolerance. Probably pumparound rate spec should be inactive.

I suspect its struggling to match the temperature set for the vapour, a comoom problem as there may no composition/bubble combination point that exactly matches that temperature. I would try setting flow or pumparound return temperature and let it calcuate the vapour temperature.
