I am getting 99999 error when running the 'Add Surface Information' tool with a 3D polygon. I have tried adding Z_MIN, Z_MAX, Z_MEAN, separately and in combination but it will not work. I get the field added and all Null values. I know this was supposed to be fixed in 10.2 but is it fixed? I am using 10.3.1 and I also tried in ArcGIS Pro 1.1.0 (same error).

I had the same error and for me the problem came from my data which had a geographic coordinate system. I projected the digital elevation model and my polygon feature class in the same projected coordinate system and it worked. Some tools in the 3D Analyst extension don't work with data that have a geographic coordinate system and raise this general error.
