"Erreur s'est produite durant l'utilisation du fournisseur des traductions : La mémoire de traduction ou le conteneur de MT semble être manquant ou a été supprimé."

Hi, one of my colleagues is receiving a recurrent error when translating with Trados.

The error message reads: "Erreur s'est produite durant l'utilisation du fournisseur des traductions (filename of Translation Memory) : La mémoire de traduction ou le conteneur de MT semble être manquant ou a été supprimé."

We've tried replacing the translation memory file, which seems to solve the issue for a week or so. Then the error message pops up again. Below are several screenshots she's sent me. 

When starting a new project, she already receives these error messages. Why? Can you please explain what they mean?

Trados Studio project preparation screen showing tasks with two error messages related to applying PerfectMatch and pre-translating files.

Once she's imported a project, it says it's already 21% translated with the translation memory. But then when she starts editing the project, none of the translations are actually there so she has to click on each cell for the translation to appear (see next image). 

Trados Studio project files screen showing a file named '21_11_DE-FP-PRIO-3_770' with 21% progress indicated by the translation memory.

Trados Studio editor screen with a file open but no translations displayed in the cells, requiring manual clicking for translations to appear.

It's also at this point that she receives these error messages saying that the translation memory doesn't exist or has been deleted. 

Error message screen in Trados Studio displaying seven errors stating issues with the translation provider and missing or deleted translation memory.

Why is the translation memory file getting corrupted in the first place and what can we do to prevent this going forward?

Many thanks for your help on the topic.

  • Hi

    Can you please explain more about this TM.

    • Is it file based, on a network drive, or a server TM?
      I assume its a GroupShare TM as it mentions container in the error
    • Who else can access the TM and are they getting the same error?
    • What happens if the TM is used outside of a project?
      Example translate single document?

    Looking forward to your clarifications so I know how best to help

    Lyds

  • Hi Lydia, 

    Thanks so much for your reply. I'm not sure I've fully understood everything you've asked but I'll try reply as best I can:

    - The TM is an sdltm file that our translations agency has shared with us via Google Drive. My colleague has since downloaded the file onto her desktop. 

    - Only this colleague uses the TM. No one else in our team uses it. When I have tried to test the same TM file (but downloaded to my computer), I don't get the same error. 

    - I have downloaded the same file to my computer and tried translating a single product. I don't get any error messages. 

    I hope this answers your questions and that we can find a solution quickly. 

  • Hi

    FYI - when replying, please use the @ then my name so I am tagged to the update. Otherwise I miss the notification and I only saw this by chance.

    Thank you for confirming you can work error free with the TM, which means it must be a local issue on her end.
    I did ask what happens if she does not use the TM in a project, but rather when doing a "Translate Single Document" and tries to run a Batch Task Pre-translate..
    I suspect the issues are not reproduced. I could check her project templates and see how she creates a project, because something about her TM reference in project templates could be wrong. I cant think of why else you are working error free and she not.

  • Hi Lydia, thank you so much for your response. That would be great if you could check her project templates. How would we be able to set that up? Thanks!

  • , if it works for you and not for your colleague then it would be much easier for you to compare/assess her project creation process vs yours, and correct any differences.

    With that said, I keep on mentioning the same point which will add additional clarity. Can she work with the TM error free as part of a single document? If yes, then it proves my thought the issues reported are template related.

  • Hi Lydia, I've just tried using the TM file again on my computer and now I am getting the error message. When I click to understand more it says the TM file is corrupted. Here is the error report (copied below).

    I have also tried using the TM to translate a single document (via Fichier > Ouvrir > Traduire un seul document) and again I am unable to use the TM file. What do you suggest?
