I submitted a job but got an error:

I didn't find any error in there, looking for some help!

Thanks a lot!

This file is incomplete. If this is the whole file then it seems the solver exited unexpectedly without even an error.
See if there is a .log file with an error message.

Can you provide some details about the analysis ? Such ambiguous error messages may be caused by issues independent of Abaqus but also by mistakes in modeling.
Also check the dat file for warnings/errors.
