object reference not set to an instance of an object when confirming a segment

Bhernardo Viana

Hello,

I get this error "object reference not set to an instance of an object" when I try to confirm segments that have a term that is specified in my termbase.

I use SDL Language Cloud Terminology as my standard termbase since I use AdaptiveMT.

If I go to Verification and turn on any of the Verification Criteria under "Terminology Verify", this error happens. If these boxes aren't selected, the error doesn't happen.

I've already tried creating a new project. It didn't work.

I don't have terms without a target or source in my termbase.

EDIT: Ok I reached the point where I'm almost sure it's a problem with Language Cloud.

  • I created a new Language Cloud Termbase with the same terms and used it instead. The error kept happening.
  • I reduced the cloned termbase to a single term and created a test file with it. The error still happened.
  • I tested the regular Verify settings, all activated, with a file-based termbase instead and the error did not happen. The full verify was perfect with no errors.
  • I created another test project and the error kept happening
  • I reset the settings in Files > Options to default and the error kept happening
  • I won't reinstall Trados because I indentified the issue with Language Cloud termbases. It's not on my PC or installation of Trados.

Any clues?

    Hi 

    Try removing and re-adding the termbase in your project settings, here:

    Trados Studio Project Settings window showing the Termbases tab with an option to add, remove, or filter termbases. A termbase named 'WRAC (default)' is listed without a specified language pair.

    All the best

    Alison :)

    Hi

    Most likely your termbase contains an entry with an empty source language term.

    Thanks, Jesse! Any tips on how to figure out which entry has this problem?

    Hi Bhernardo

    Thank you for the information.
    >I reduced the cloned termbase to a single term and created a test file with it.

    Would you be able to share what the single term was?

    Hi Bhernardo,

    Term verification does not work yet with Cloud Terminology, it's something we are working on and will be in a future release.

    Thanks,
    Luis

    I just encountered this problem too and was wondering what the state of affairs is with using LC as AT provider and term verification. In my case, the problem "stuck" even after removing LC from the TM/AT provider list.

    Hello all,
    any news on this one? I stopped using LC weeks ago and I still get this error very often. I know how to work around it (turn off all verification criteria in the Terminology Verifier/Verification settings). BUT. Is there a fix in sight? (I get this with all kinds of files, Excel, Word, XML...)
