I tried all the commands in the title but with no success. I'm trying to create a solid out of these lines. Basically the end result should look more or less like 1/4 off an egg.
I have a vertical polyline that i need to "revolve" around it's self but the outside (the arch) should follow the ellipse on the floor.
Post your .dwg here and I will show you a video how to do what you want.
(sweep or loft and surfpatch and surfsculpt will do the job).

as you can see in below image , the problem is that you have an ellipse with two different radius direction that your shape will follow ( dashed green and magenta ). if you have a circle path it will be done successfully because you're using one radius direction. i think that it can be done by doing more than command procedure .

I'm not sure which result you expect. Here (attached) one model.

>> i'm afraid not !!! <<
Here still some examples, trying to use a constant radius (15, 16, 17, 18, 19 and 19.9999) along the elliptical edge.
It is geometrical impossible to get ONE radius along the elliptical edge.
[EDIT]: ok, in the meantime I see that the suggestion above was accepted. THX
