Ackward behavior in Abaqus

Hello colleagues! 

I am facing a very strange phenomenon in Abaqus 2019. Setting up a transient consolidation analysis, and despite converging and showing job as complete, no output is written to the job at all. Needless to say, I am requesting standard field output every n=1 steps and the analysis is 10 increments or so. It's quite frustrating to see your mesh disappear when you expect to see nice colors. If this ever happened to you please do share how you went about it. 

Cheers,
