I can't reproduce this issue. Can you check if this happens with latest alpha build from https://builder.blender.org/download/daily/?

But you are either still checking with 2.93 version as evidenced by path in trace or somehow 3.1 version is using old scripts. Can you re-check that?

I have checked again and can reproduce the issue. was looking at Dancing.fbx file only which works correctly.

Only want to add that trying to convert the belly_dance.fbx file using the free Autodesk FBX Converter returns a txt with the following message:

Call to FbxImporter::Import() failed. Error: File is corrupted

So in this particular case, I'd attribute the problem to the source of the FBX, not the FBX importer.

In the case of my issue which was a duplicate so merged into this one, the fbx I attached imports fine into Unreal Engine, but not into Blender.

@yigimet @JaceBurgs
If you read carefully, the conclusion is that the fbx was defective. You cannot import defective FBX and Blender cannot import those.

Fix your files, double check with other software, be positively sure it's exclusively blender's fault.

Other software can be more relaxed letting in defective files, like UE, but Blender being an editor cannot really afford that.

I have Tried this over the course of the entire day with approximately 17 diff fbx file some downloaded some created by myself. And I assure you they are not defective. The fbx loads into mixamo perfectly fine. And zbrush etc the only program having an issue is blender so yes... It's a blender issue

If you read carefully, the conclusion is that the fbx was defective.

That was the conclusion for the first .fbx posted by the OP, however with each merge of error reports new .fbx files which are known to work in other applications (such as the one I submitted) have been added which show that there is a Blender issue here, even if you accept it as being less relaxed for file imports, if it imported with warnings that would be at least something.
