Slicing error for fillets

I am trying to FDM-print a simple pot model which uses fillets at the inner and outer bottom edges. PrusaSlicer (version 2.5.2) does not generate material for the inner fillet, resulting in insufficient support for the upper layers. This leads to printing errors, such as loose extruded filament. What am I doing wrong?

Project file and 3d-model: simple_pot-pot

BR, Sebastian

Best Answer by Neophyl:

Its because your top layers and infill are set to 0.  Its basically missing as your parameters don't allow it to print.  Either add top layers/infill or enough bottom layers to be able to print the base at the thickness you have it designed at.

Imagine your diagram above with only the bottom 2 rows you have pictured.

Thanks, Neophyl! After setting the number of "Top Solid Layers" to the defaults, slicing yields the expected (fixed) results. 

My mistake was to enable and disable "Spiral Vase" without resetting the affected parameters to their defaults.
