KiCAD 10 Gerbers don't work at JLCPCB??

I have a small PCB, 20x24mm. When I upload the Gerber, JLC displays correctly, and denotes the proper dimensions. It looks good here, but .....

When I click Gerber viewer, JLCPCB hangs.

If I ignore that, reload Gerber, and try to go through PCBA. When I get to screen where I verify placement, the PCB does not render, and the website hangs.

I started KiCAD 9and loaded on older abandoned design. I generated Gerbers, these display correctly and Gerber viewer works too. I did not verify PCBA because I did not want to burn an hour looking up JLCPCB #s, etc. as I have no intention to fab this board.

I checked the Gerber menu 9 to 10, it looks the same to me!

Differences are new board is smaller, and it does have teardrops.

Any ideas? Is it me? Is it KiCAD? Is it JLCPCB?
