Have you tried any of the suggestions in the above posts? If so what were the
results?

There won't be a magic solution and no-one is going to be able to diagnose
the problem without additional information or if it really gets desperate a
copy of the .qif.  file you are trying to import. 

Have you looked at the GnuCash log files? 
https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Logging. Was there anything indicating a
problem?

Have you started GnuCash with the debug switch? ( start with $gnucash
--debug at a terminal prompt  this gives more detail in the log files).
Have you examined your file to find out whether it deviates from the QIF
file formatting?https://www.w3.org/2000/10/swap/pim/qif-doc/QIF-doc.htm
Were there any obvious deviations?

Try these and post your results and someone stands a chance of being able to
help. 

The only major changes to the qif import between 2.6.19 and 3.1 were a shift
from the guile1.8 to guile2.0 library, a change in the format of an example
qif file and some changes to the matching of dates. There was nothing
obvious that affected the parsing of the file in the commits that I could
find.
