How to slice solid with surface?

$

I'm using ACAD 2014 Win8 64bit.

 

I need to slice a cylinder with a surface but the slice command keeps giving error " Inconsistent face-body relationships".

 

I created the surface from a solid that I created using solid intercept between the cylinder and another solid that the cylinder actually passes through (a housing I have). In my attachment I do not include the housing, just the cylinder, the solid intercept and the surface from the a face of the solid intercept.

 

I tried increasing the U & V isolines of the surface, and scaling it up so that it isn't bounded by the cylinder, but that didn't help.

 

I googled around for this and tried some of the suggestions I found, but no help.

 

I'm willing to try any technique that achieves the same goal - I need the butt of the cylinder to contour to the housing so that I can do a JOIN and have a solid housing with a cylinder sticking out of its face. The inside of the housing is hollow with a 0.05 inch wall.

 

Thanks for your help!
