Cleaning issue: Unexpected file end in Trados Studio 2014

Question

While trying to clean some htm files into target files with Studio 2014, I get a error notification saying that the file end is unexpected, and line 1, position 68 wasn't closed properly. The same message appears when I try to check the files, i.e. the tags cannot be checked. However, according to Xbench, there are not tag failures, and I also cannot see any problems with tags in any of the segments. Can anybody help?

Hi Anne, 
 
To troubleshoot files try these articles: 
 
How to troubleshoot issues with generating your target file in SDL Trados Studio : http://goo.gl/gW6X6 
 
How to troubleshoot problematic files : http://goo.gl/Mlodc 
 
More often, the solution to these problems is resolved like this: 
 
- Open the source file again using the "Translate Single Document" process 
- Save it to create a single file project 
- Try to save target now before you do anything. If it works go onto the next step, but if it doesn't then you need to consider the more advanced 
 trouble shooting steps in the KB article as it may be a problem with the source file 
- Pretranslate the file using your Translation Memory 
- Save the target file 
 
If none of that helps, and if you are allowed to share the file you can send me the fully translated sdlxliff and the original source file and I'll happily take a look.
