Thanks for All.
I tested the behavior using provide data. After defining the coordinate system tool worked as expected. Please define the correct projection of your data and run sun shadow volume tool.
Steps:
1. Open ArcCatalog window / ArcCatalog
2. Navigate to multipatch feature class > Right click > properties > XY Cordinate sytem
3. Choose appropriate Projected Coordinate system > Click Ok
4. Use Sun Shadow Volume tool.
Fixed it by defining the projection of the data. Better error messages would be go though please ESRI.

Finally, I was created the shadow successfully but I do not understand the meaning of "iteration interval" and "iteration unit".
Can anyone explain it? Thanks a lot!!!!
