Error when generating a step model of the PCB

Hello everyone. I have been struggling with generating a step model of my PCB. 

I've been receiving such error:

(SPMHGE-268): step out had errors, use Viewlog to review the log file. 

Unfortunatelly, the log file is always empty and I don't even know where should I start to find a problem.

All STEP models of electronic elements are correct (I think). The icon of the DRC is red but I don't have any single error. What's going on?

    I had the same problem , was aggrevating me to no end . The solution was one of the step files was corrupt . I had to do a process of elimination to find which one . I would remove all the steps and put them on one at a time till you get that error again . Then find a new step file to replace the corrupt one .
