Curling edges with PETG

I'm having issues printing a model with PETG. I've printed it without any issues using PLA and I've printed another model using PETG successfully 6 months ago (using the same slicer settings).

The problem is the first layer. The edges of the raft curls and there are sections of it missing:

I haven't used this roll of PETG for 6 months. Could it be that it has absorbed moisture?

I'm using PrusaSlicer and I've attached the project file.

Well, it turned out that I just needed to clean the print bed. Now it prints perfectly.

Thanks for posting your solution.

It is always nice to have closure - and it can help the next person with the same problem.
