Error message on the Bossage/Base Function Scanned, Why?

Reconstruction errors: Unable to create this feature because it would result in zero-thickness geometry.

 

In one sketch I have my geometry, in another I have a curve to follow. In the Swept Boss/Base function and on profile and trajection, I selected these 2 sketches.

At validation, I have this message. What is this error?

Thanks for the help.

 

Is it possible to have a visual of your curve and your trajectory?

Finally I made another sketch with a curve. And this time it works.

If anyone knows the reason for the message, I'm interested.

Hello, without seeing the profile is the trajectory impossible to tell where the error is. Probably two collinear lines in the profile or between the profile and the trajectory.

 

To see when Solidworks cannot construct geometry due to zero thickness, see:

Hello

May be too tight a curve radius
