You haven't defined a mass so the software can't find any natural frequencies. I don't know why you are requesting an eigen frequency analysis, but you might do that occasionally for wind load analysis.
 
Yeah, I suspect you just didn't properly define your mass source.

If you look in the Manuals folder of your program there should be a "Welcome to ETABS" manual that will have a section that talks at least a little about how to define your mass source.
