everybody. I have spent almost 6 hours trying to fix this. I am probably missing something really stupid here.

I have a simple Spine -> Neck type armature. I am parenting the Armature to the Mesh with automatic weights. When I switch to pose mode, and try to move the armature nothing moves. I am attaching the screenshots

This is my project structure.

I have obj and fbx versions of the model and I tried it with both

The model was sent to me by the 3D Artists that the company out sources to.

I am tired of talking to them to fix the problem. Maybe somebody here can help me out. Thanks in advance

Try to parent the mesh to the armature again and check the status bar if you see the infamous "Bone Heat Weighting Failed to Find Solution for One or More Bones" error. Watch closely because the message is visible only a few seconds and then disapears. – Blunder Nov 25 '21 at 12:49
An alternative way to check is to switch the viewport to the Info window and scroll back through the window looking at messages. – Marty Fouts Dec 06 '21 at 23:22
