Error message - unable to install updates

Hi

For the last couple of weeks I've been getting the error message below every time I open Trados (I'm using Studio Freelance 2017) or MultiTerm:

Screenshot of Trados Studio Freelance 2017 with an error message dialog box stating 'An error has occurred in the script on this page.' Options given are 'Yes' and 'No'.

Both Trados and Muliterm have been whitelisted for my anti-virus and firewall, so it's not that. I tried reinstalling but it didn't help. Can anyone advise? It isn't obviously interfering with my workflow, but it is annoying.

Many thanks in advance!

    Does any of that help at all?

  • Hi David

    I just tried to post the log, and my message got flagged as abusive (?!) so it would appear I can't! Here is a print screen instead:

    Screenshot of Trados Studio log with multiple entries, some lines highlighted in pink indicating warnings or errors.

    When I go to the link you posted, I get the following:

    Screenshot of a web browser displaying an error message, with the text highlighted in blue, indicating a problem with accessing a link.

    Does any of that tell you anything?

    Many thanks,

    Ruth

    Don't copy paste the error text into the post.  Save the error as an xml file to your desktop and then attach it to your post.

  • Hello ,

    First of all- apologies for your post being flagged as abusive.

    This happens automatically when a lot of repetition is detected in the post- if this happens again, please just let us know and we can manually release the thread.

    Looking at the log, I think there may be a permissions issue that is preventing you from continuing with the download.

    Please ensure you are logged on as admin-if you already have these full rights- please log a free licensing and installation ticket via your SDL account and we can take a look.

  • Hi Steven

    That's OK, it happened so fast I knew it must have triggered something automatic. I've now logged a ticket. Many thanks for your help.

    Best wishes,

  • Sorry for the delay I was out of the office.
    I'm not quite sure what is failing. But its at the point where it looks up the update server and tries to connect to it.

    Either the installation is corrupted somehow in which case a repair or re-installation would solve it.
    direct download for latest 2017  http://update.sdl.com/updates/update1/studio5/live/SDLTradosStudio2017_SR1_54792.exe

    But that would be odd for it to be happening in multiterm as well, so its possible that you have some sort of network issue or firewall/security software blocking the link from the udpate client.

    If you have antivirus you could disable it for a second and try running the check for updates.

  • Hi David. Thanks for your help - I think I've solved it. I manually updated both programs, which got rid of the message in Trados but not MultiTerm. I then dug into my firewall settings and found that MutliTermUpdateClient.exe was being blocked by the firewall. I changed the rule and voila... problem appears to be solved. Many thanks for your help!

    Best wishes,

    Ruth
