So you want the the profile swept along the top of the wall, which is sloping? Wall sweeps can only be horizontal or vertical, they can't slope. You'll have to edit the profile of the wall to slope, and then use a "Model-in-Place" family for the sweep. After you've changed the profile of your wall to be the way you want it. Select "Model-in-Place" choose "Sweep" and then choose "Pick 3D Edges". Select the sloping wall, load or draw the profile, and you're done.

You could also create a Floor or Roof with the sloping geometry for the wall cap and then attached the wall to it.

I've followed your instructions above and keep getting the can't create sweep message? See screenshots below.
