Multiple errors + QA checker blocked when trying to process multiple xliff files that were originally alignments

Hello,

After proofreading a long, multi-slide excel document, I aligned it, and now I'd like to import it into the TM but first I want to run our termbase and QA verifications that are only available in Editor. So I saved the 15 align files as xliff files, started a new project, loaded the folder where the xliffs were, and then prepared the project. When I try to open the multiple xliffs for translation (or review), I get these errors:

Then I click okay and editor populates. Then this error plus the very strange "Check out require" message which I've never seen before.

Then I get another "The path is not of a legal form" error immediately, then every single time I move to another segment.

Plus "verify" is greyed out, which was the very point of going through this process.

Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong and/or if what I want to do is even possible and/or if there's a better way to do it?

  • Hi ,

    Can you share the actual stack trace rather than a screenshot of the error? Just save the XML error file to your desktop and then add it as a file into this post. That way it gets rendered in a very usable way.

    Oh and I get a good ol "Object reference not set to an instance of an object." error once I close the xliff.

  • Hi ,

    I know it seems like a kop out but I think the best solution here is to carry out a reset. If you can provide some files that I can use to reproduce the problem then we can investigate it, but I think it's likely in this instance that I won't be able to reproduce it and as the problem is linked to the user files on your machine.

    Might be worth installing this small utility to make it easier to reset as it also has an undo feature, so if resetting doesn't work then you can at least put everythying back easily.

  • Tried out this app. Had high hopes since I do the renaming of the folders restore method fairly often. This app didn't seem to work tho.

    Tried "repair studio" which is the same as the windows control panel function. Still got the errors.
    Trying the "remove folders" task. Finished the process in just a second. Relaunched Studio but it immediately reopened the previous project. I thought project data would be removed. Usually when I rename the folders "_old", I return to clean project view pane. Also I usually get the wizard for initial user settings when I do ta reset. Anyway, reopened the project made just a few minutes previous. Errors still there. 
    In Freshstart, I noticed I didn't have the bottom three options checked to remove the "project" files. Tried "remove folders" again with these three checked. Crashed. Not helpful being all in Japanese, but here's the image. Message box only gives the option to "close". No option for error data.

    Reopened SDL Freshstart, tried to again to "remove folders" for the three project related options. Crashed again.
    Reopened Studios, projects still there, errors still there.
    Manually did a reset by renaming the folders the usual way. Initial user settings wizard opened as normally when I do a reset. This didn't happen when I used Freshstart. Reopened studio and projects were gone as expected. Remade the project of the xliff files. Errors persisted. Tried opening just one xliff and got no errors but I need to do multiple at the same time. Tried remaking the project and merging the xliffs during the wizard. Got the same set of errors.

    I'll send you these xliff files (no TM necessary) that I'd like to simultaneously "open for translation" and then run QA tasks on them and then import into a memory. Please check your e-mail and see if you have any problems. 

    Thank you.
