@Litjan will be better to answer this, but as I recall, this error presents itself when you choose a cruise altitude too high to achieve for the length of the route. Selecting a lower cruise altitude should resolve this.

As a side note, the project is not forgotten or dead.

Yes, Cameron is correct - when the plane calculates that it won´t be able to reach it´s cruise altitude and then descend again in time for the landing, this message will appear.

It can also happen that a different STAR or SID has an altitude restriction on it, that makes it impossible to reach the cruising altitude.

When you change a SID or STAR while you are already flying another one, VNAV can get confused about the phase of flight it is on (climb, cruise, approach)
