RAM Connections - Base Plate Friction

$

Hi,

I am analyzing a fixed biaxial base plate connection using RAM Connection Standalone 11.02. I attached the specific connection file below with geometry and worst case loads. When I checked "include friction between base plate and support" the file says error "object reference not set to an instance of an object" and doesn't let me go back into the editor so I would always have to close the file completely and reopen. Does that mean the friction alone is not enough to overcome to shear forces and I should go about looking into welding the anchor bolts or designing a shear lug to solve the shear forces?
