Trados Studio crashes in some projects - suspect is something with groupshare access

Hello

In some PCs from my translators I have Trados crashing in some projects but not all. The log is attached and we always see the error - same for the 2 users (husband and wife) in the same house with the same internet connection:

ERROR [2026-01-08 17:36:56,723][Thread:15 ] SDL.ApiClientSDK.GS.UserManagementV2Client - Server returned unsuccessfull status code : InternalServerError, Message : {"Message":"User 'tferro' does not have global permission 'manageRoles'"} Exception TraceId : 

Please find the log attached

Version:

translator 1 - trados 2024 last version

translator 2 - Trados 2024 not updated to last version yet

I saw the article https://sdl.my.site.com/apex/communityknowledge?articleName=000021696

but im not sure it solves the issue. I cant get a pattern. This is because, due to this error, i have done a totally clean new installation in translator 1 but the error reappeared

Could this be somethign in the connection to our groupshare? - its behind a VPN

I tested also giving administrator rights to translator 1 temporarily but the error persists

Anti virus ?

    In the meantime, based on the information you have provided, here is a suggested answer to your question:  

    Hello,  

    It seems you're experiencing crashes in Trados Studio related to GroupShare access, particularly with the error message indicating that the user does not have the global permission 'manageRoles'. Here are some steps you can take to troubleshoot and potentially resolve the issue:  

    **Step 1:** **Check User Permissions**  

    - Log into the GroupShare Web User Interface as an administrator.  

    - Navigate to Users > Permissions and edit the roles assigned to the affected users. Ensure that they have the necessary permissions, including 'View Organization'. Save the changes and have the users restart their Trados Studio applications.  

    **Step 2:** **Verify SQL Credentials**  

    - In the GroupShare Web UI, go to System Configuration -> Servers.  

    - Check the Username and Password fields for the affected database server and correct them if necessary. Save the settings and restart the GroupShare services.  

    **Step 3:** **Check Firewall Settings**  

    - Ensure that the firewall on the SQL server is not blocking connections to the GroupShare application server. You can test this by pinging the server from the SQL server. If it times out, you may need to adjust the firewall settings.  

    **Step 4:** **Review Logs**  

    - Analyze the attached log file for any additional error messages or patterns that could provide more insight into the crashes.  

    **Step 5:** **Update Software**  

    - Ensure that both translators are using the same version of Trados Studio. If one is not updated, consider updating to the latest version to avoid compatibility issues.  

    **Step 6:** **Consider VPN Issues**  

    - Since you mentioned that the connection is behind a VPN, check if there are any VPN-related issues that could be affecting connectivity to GroupShare.  

    **Step 7:** **Contact Support**  

    - If the issue persists after trying the above steps, consider reaching out to RWS Support for further assistance, especially if this is a known defect (CRQ-27652) that may be addressed in an upcoming release.
