Why won't this sketch solve?

I'm building a model of some outward facing GT2 timing belt. I used equations that use the number of teeth and the pitch to calculate the circumference and diameter. Everything is then built on top of that. I expected that I should be able to change the number of teeth and everything would update painlessly. What I don't understand is why it refuses to solve. Unfortunately the message is so generic as to give no hint.
I have tried removing the diameter dimension, after which I can manually resize the design. If I re-apply the dimension, the sketch stays where it is and I get a failure message. So the mystery deepens - if I'm allowed to do it, why won't the app set the diameter to my calculated value?
