Symptoms:
When editing a segment in the browser-based editor in SDL TMS, these two characters, "<" and ">" , are not encoded correctly when the translation is saved. Instead of being stored using their encoded versions (< and >), they were being stored as literal characters. These characters would then be removed during the rebuild translation stage.
Explanation:
The browser-based editor…
Symptoms:
Installing the security update for Microsoft Windows Server 2012 R2 (KB4338419, KB4338420) can prevent users from being able to access the SDL TMS user interface. Despite being able to log in normally, subsequent pages result in a server-side error. On some servers, the incompatibility is seen when starting the web site in which case the entire UI is inaccessible.
Explanation:
The security update is a remediation…
Symptoms:
Switching the workflow for a task in SDL TMS could cause a "duplicate key" database error which would send the task to recovery.

Symptoms:
SDL Trados Studio packages downloaded from SDL TMS would sometimes have the wrong word counts in the fuzzy match bands when the package was opened in SDL Trados Studio.
Explanation:
This error occurred when the SDL TMS database query returned the fuzzy match band word counts in the wrong order.
Resolution:
The procedure for retrieving fuzzy band word counts has been amended to ensure that the counts are always returned…
Symptoms:
When editing an attribute, SDL TMS would sometimes stop responding and force a reboot of IIS in order to bring the website back online.
Explanation:
This occurred because editing an attribute also checked where that attribute might be in use. Attributes that are used extensively were returning a very large data set for the "in use" information, which was then causing the server to consume too much memory.…
Symptoms:
The status of jobs submitted to SDL TMS through the Adobe Experience Manager connector was not being correctly reported back to the connector after the job was created.
Explanation:
During job creation, SDL TMS was creating a temporary job as a placeholder. This temporary job was not being correctly processed and when the connector requested the status, the status of the temporary job was being returned.
Resolution…

Symptoms:
Terminology entries containing ampersand characters were not being shown in the translation editor in SDL TMS even thought the exact term was present in the text for translation.
Explanation:

Explanation:
This issue was caused by an error in the XLIFF 2.0 filter which was not handling some special cases where the segment ended with a closing tag.
Resolution:
This hotfix deploys a new version of the XLIFF 2.0 filter which has the necessary fix to prevent the files from going…
Symptoms:
Adding a Terminated workflow step to the workflow resulted in messages being written to the log file up to 100 times per second. As a consequence, disk space was being consumed rapidly and the performance of SDL TMS could degrade over time.
Explanation:
This issue was caused by not having an appropriate message handler for the Terminated message.
Resolution:
This hotfix adds a new message handler for the Termin…
Symptoms:
Downloading SDL Trados Studio packages from the Inbox View (Tasks) page in SDL TMS 11.4 could sometimes result in a ZIP file containing a single file with the name No_Files_Available.txt
Explanation:
This issue was introduced as part of a previous fix for CRQ-6656 which was incorrectly checking permissions and concluding that the user didn't have sufficient permission to download the selected tasks.
Resolution…
Symptoms:
When using a custom Authorization step, tasks were being sent to Recovery.
Explanation:
This problem only happened when authorizing tasks from the authorization page in SDL TMS, but not when submitting tasks from a user's Inbox. The logic for authorization was not consistent between the two methods.
Resolution:
Both authorization actions, from the Inbox and from the authorization page, now follow consistent…
Symptoms:
After multiple jobs had been created, some email messages were not being sent from SDL TMS .
Explanation:
The issue was caused by an incorrect deletion of email messages, occurring before the emails were sent to their recipients.
Resolution:
Unsent messages are no longer removed from the message queue in SDL TMS which will ensure correct delivery of these email messages.

Symptoms:
When a plug-in experienced a timeout in a multi-server environment, it was possible for two instances of the same plug-in to be running on two separate servers at the same time.
Explanation:
The issue occurred due to synchronization issues with the notification of the plug-in timeout.
Resolution:
Timeout notifications are now synchronized to prevent multiple instances of a single plug-in from running at the same…
We are pleased to announce the availability of a new hotfix for SDL TMS 11.4 which fully enables the integration between SDL TMS 11.4, SDL Trados Studio and TAUS DQF.

Resolution:
We have now modified the page to retrieve the project information correctly and thus display the…
Symptoms:
SDL TMS would sometimes send tasks to Recovery at the Routing step because of database deadlocks.
Explanation:
This issue was caused by a custom workflow step which was changing the active workflow for many tasks concurrently. Consequently, this resulted in database deadlocks.
Resolution:
The stored procedure handling the setting of the active workflow has been optimized to eliminate the possibility of getting…
Symptoms:
SDL TMS would sometimes become unresponsive due to high CPU usage by IIS when running the SDL TMS website.
Explanation:
This issue was found to be a result of multiple requests accessing the same resource concurrently, causing conflicts which could not be resolved. The only way to solve them was resetting IIS.
Resolution:
SDL TMS now manages requests to access the same resource to prevent conflicts and allows IIS…
