File incomplete

Never had this one before when I put a sd card that has a certain simplify 3d sliced part I get a error message" file incomplete do you want to continue yes or no" this is a file that I have printed on my mrk2 with out problems in the past but the new printer does not like it. Any one know what is going on here?
Yes I have tried to slice it on the slic3r PE. but it fails to import correctly. The file was generated with Fusion 360 using inch dimension. And it comes in very small.

Put the card back in your computer and take a look at the file. Is it 0 length? I had this problem a lot trying use a Toshiba FlashAir card via wifi, but the same thing can happen if you pull the SD card out of your computer before it has flushed all of the written data out from buffers. Be sure to properly eject the card before removing it to avoid this problem. If you persistently get problems, the card may need to be re-formatted.

And it comes in very small.There are other posts on this topic. You need to set Fusion 360 to use mm dimensions. It also helps to set Fusion 360 to use Z as the top of prints. It defaults to Y for historical reasons, and you end up having to rotate every model when you import it into a slicer. As Joan notes in your other post on this very topic, scale the imported model by 2540% to scale up.

Re: File incomplete

You're printing two or more objects and your sliced gcode file size is 64mb.

Re: File incomplete

You also get this message if you use for example ü, ö, ä in the file name.
