Hi guys, I have been trying to troubleshoot this problem for more that 3 hours without any success, can somebody highlight me on whats wrong with the model (attached .inp file).
When I try to check the model before the run, I get the error that two elements 2900 and 2901 have no properties assigned on them, which is not true cause I did assign the properties while creating the connector. I will appreciate your insight, thanks in advance.

These two elements are not connectors. DCOUP3D are elements for distributed couplings.
Users Manual 32.4.1 Distributing coupling elements

Remove them if you don't need them.
