Message "Object reference not set to an instance of an object" when trying to create a project

Hi there!

I'm trying to create a project in Studio 2015, but it stops right in the beginning. Having clicked "Finish", I keep getting this message: "Object reference not set to an instance of an object".  Is there a workaround for this? (I see that the same message has shown up when people have tried to save the target after completing the translation - but this is not the same, since the message comes up when trying to create the project).

BEst regards,

Sari

  • Hi Sari,

    Ali here again with just a suggestion... When you create a new project, I presume you are adding a memory.

    If so, can you check under the following screen, that all the penalties are NOT set to '0'...

     

    Screen accessed via 'New Project' > Next to 'Project details' > Next to 'Project languages' > Next to 'Project files' > Next to 'Translation Memory and Automated Translation', where you click on 'Penalties' in the dropdown list on the left.

    There was a bug with Studio 2015, where a '0' in each of the penalties windows caused the 'Object reference not set to an instance of an object' error message.

    I would have thought that by now this bug would have been fixed but if your version isn't fully up to date this could be the cause maybe. 

    All the best,

    Ali
