Why model does not accept Path definition in Mechanical even though it is within the part? The message is – “The path is not contained entirely within the finite element mesh.”

For Path definition in Mechanical, it can be resolved using Snap to Mesh Nodes while defining the Path. One can get some more info about this feature under Mechanical User’s Guide//Specifying Construction Geometry in the Mechanical Application//Path at ANSYS/Help. This happens mainly when one is dealing with high curvature geometries. In such cases, the mesh may not capture the exact curvature of the geometry. For such cases, when one define path using two points method, one may need to snap the end points to closest node before proceeding to post-processing.
