    Please take a look at your .out file.

     

    It gives you some hints on your errors.

     

    Your property with ID 2 is a pshell and it has zero thickness.

    Also this shell property (id 2) is being used in a component that has solid elements (CTETRA).

    CTETRA solid elements needs a PSOLID property.

    Check your model please.
