"An error occured creating a file based translation memory.."
I'he got an error during creating project using API. There is no details, there is no additional information, just the information above. And the task history:
I'm having constant problems with this in a slightly different situation, but probably caused by the same problem...
I get unpredictable crashes when creating project packages using "Create new project translation memory" package option - both in 'standard' use of Trados Studio and via API (using PowerShell toolkit).
This does NEVER happen if the "Create new project TM" option is not used... therefore I strongly believe that it has something to do with this thread.
I have different projects containing different source file types and 10+ target languages (sometimes 13, sometims 36, etc.). And creating translation packages keeps crashing at different stages/languages due to OutOfMemory exception, which causes the temporary/working package not being created in the TMP directory, so the subsequent subprocess, which wants to copy this temp package to the project and to the target location, fails...
This is my typical situation when I start the packages creation (and pray that it actually completes):
Now I click back, don't change anything and start the packages creation again... and most probably it WILL crash again (at unpredictable point)... :-\
-------
I'm now seeing the same behavior when generating packages via API (using PowerShell Tookit).
Monitoring the memory usage shows constant growth with every new language up to a certain point, where the creation sort of stalls... and then crashes:
Here is the piece of code responsible for the packages creation. I don't see anything obviously wrong here... actually I even tried to add the Remove-Variable line in an attempt to forcibly free some resources, but it didn't help much (it's visible as little drops in memory usage in the above graph, but obviously it's not the main memory-eater).
