Unable to connect to GS server

Hi,

I am not anymore to connect to GS server when I click on a link to get my translation project file. I receive the following message "Unable to contact the server. Check your connection Internet or contact the Trados GroupShare admin":

Error dialog box with a warning icon saying 'Impossible de contacter le serveur. Verifiez votre connexion Internet ou contactez l'administrateur Trados GroupShare.' with an OK button.

I also tried to get the files through the Studio Home page > Open a GroupShare project option. I'm using Trados Studio 2022.

Could you please help to solve this?

  • Hello  , 

    From the error message it seems your Trados Studio is unable to communicate with selected GroupShare server.

    In similar cases i would do the following troubleshooting steps:

    IN Trados Studio:

    1. go to: File >  Setup -> Servers and check that your server connection is marked with green tick mark.  If it isn't check that you entered correctly server address, SSL, SDL Provider type, user name and password. Here is the link to KB. https://gateway.sdl.com/apex/communityknowledge?articleName=000009941 
    Trados Studio server setup window showing a green tick mark next to the server address indicating it is available.

    In your preferred web browser:

    1. In the address bar type the full server name (with https://  or http://)   Can you see the GroupShare daashboard login page?
    If you can't see the GroupShare server login page, that your GroupShare server is inacessible or down. 
    GroupShare login page with a red outline around the username field and an error message stating 'This field is required'.

    2. Now type in your user name and password and check that your user get validated.  if you get an error, than you should check that you are entering username and password correctly.

    GroupShare login error pop-up stating 'Authentication Failed. Username or Password is not valid.'

    Entering username and password correctly should show the GroupShare server dashboard with the hello message:

    GroupShare dashboard displaying a welcome message 'Hello, Simon Bratina' with the current date and a list of upcoming project deliveries.

    Hope this help a bit.
