Trados Studio 2022 Freelance after update to 17.1.8.17828 Language Weaver error message "Object reference not set to an instance of an object"

Daniela Wittmeier

Hi team,

I just installed the update in Studio 2022 to version 17.1.8.17828 and have trouble using Language Weaver - what does this error message mean?

Error dialog box in Trados Studio 2022 showing 'Object reference not set to an instance of an object.' with details of the error source from Language Weaver and a stack trace of system functions.

    Click on this to load the file... don't copy the path in:

    Hi Paul,

    I still have the problem wiht the Object reference error message in relation to Language Weaver. This time, new single file, it worked when I started the translation the other day, now that I re-opened the file I get the message that Language Weaver cannot be opened. What else can I do beyond what we have tried already?
    Thank you, Dani

    The developer has a suspicion from the error stack that it could be related to the name of the model you are using?  So if you changed the model today, compared to when it worked without a problem, then this may be the reason. Can you tell me what the name is of the model you're using?

    The image shows the Translation Memory Results Window of the Trados Studio editing UI. The English source segment is "The Voice of Reason '1'", and an arrow points downwards to a highlighted section indicating the use of the "Language Weaver - GenericQE" machine translation engine and model. On the right side, the German translation provided by this engine is displayed as "Die Stimme der Vernunft '1'", with the abbreviation "NMT" (Neural Machine Translation) placed above it. This layout is characteristic of Trados Studio, where translation suggestions from various sources, including machine translation engines like Language Weaver, are displayed for the translator's reference and use.

    Hi Paul Filkin,
    I did not make any changes that I am aware of - this is the model I use. The only difference I can imagine is the spelling setting, but it gives me the same error message in Spelling US or UK.
    Screenshot of Trados Studio Language Weaver translation provider interface showing a project language pair from German (Germany) to English (United Kingdom), with a selected model 'ger-eng Generic' and spelling set to 'US'. No dictionary available is indicated.
