a. Your two posts are still flagged "This post has NOT been accepted by the
mailing list yet" check your subscription

b. As your edit implies, such errors usually mean a bad STL, posting it here
can let those of us who know the good tools can have a look at it.
c. It helps if you post your OpenSCAD version and Operating system info.
d. You may want to try the latest Development snapshot
http://www.openscad.org/downloads.html#snapshots . It has lots of
improvements, it is almost ready for release.

Thanks Michael
My error has gone now that I'm using a better-quality STL file as input.
Interesting - as the problematic STL file was generated in openscad. I
shall post my code snippet in case I've missed something fundamental in the
body generation...
Perhaps a 'bad STL' error could be produced...? This must be a common
problem.
I'm using 2014.03 on Windoze7 & Ubuntu - comparing the two...
Cheers

We're very picky about STL input. We have some ideas and wishes for
automatically repairing STL's on import (see e.g.
https://github.com/openscad/openscad/issues/1042).
If you share your STL files, we might be able to tell you what's wrong with
it and how to fix it.
