Does it solve with NLGEOM turned off?
You might have a mistake in the model. Check the magnitude of the loads and check the values of the material properties. Check the thickness property of the shell element. Reduce the load by a factor of 10^3 and try that. Reduce the load by a factor of 10^6 and try that.
