Player not moving and "The referenced script on this behavior is missing!" warning.

The player doesn't seem to move when I use WASD or arrow keys and I get the "The referenced script on this behavior is missing!" warning. This is my code:

using System.Collections; using UnityEngine;

public class PlayerMovement : MonoBehaviour {

private Animator playerAnimator;
private float moveHorizontal;
private float moveVertical;
private Vector3 movement;

// Use this for initialization
void Start() {
    playerAnimator = GetComponent<Animator> ();
}

// Update is called once per frame
void Update() {
    moveHorizontal = Input.GetAxisRaw ("Horizontal");
    moveVertical = Input.GetAxisRaw ("Vertical");

    movement = new Vector3 (moveHorizontal, 0.0f, moveVertical);
}

void FixedUpdate () {
    if (movement != Vector3.zero) {
        playerAnimator.SetFloat ("Speed", 3.0f);
    } else {
        playerAnimator.SetFloat ("Speed", 0.0f);
    }
}

}

Update: I restarted Unity and the warning disappeared, but the player still doesn't move.
