Hi all, Can anyone shed any light on this error message I'm getting in Studio please? My client sent me a package which I duly opened and began working on. So far so good. The word counts were off (showing minus figures) so I performed a Word Count batch task to try and correct them. After doing that I was unable to reopen the files getting the above error message. "Value cannot be null. Parameter name: rootContainer" I was trying to open multiple files so I tried opening each ... See more Hi all, Can anyone shed any light on this error message I'm getting in Studio please? My client sent me a package which I duly opened and began working on. So far so good. The word counts were off (showing minus figures) so I performed a Word Count batch task to try and correct them. After doing that I was unable to reopen the files getting the above error message. "Value cannot be null. Parameter name: rootContainer" I was trying to open multiple files so I tried opening each one separately, same message. I tried opening files from other projects and they open fine, no error message at all. I was unable to open the xliffs at all. I then reopened the package and began working again with the files opening fine and the previously translated content still in the TM. I then made a change to some add-in settings that required a Studio restart to take effect. After restarting I had the same problem and error message with these files. I am still able to open files from other projects. After reloading the package and starting from scratch again 3 times, I wondered if there was a problem with the project package so I created a new project using the source files from the original one. Again, everything worked fine until I started translating them, closed them down and then tried to reopen them. Interestingly, they reopened several times fine before I translated any of the content when I tested. This is a fairly sizeable project so I really don't want to be starting from scratch every time I open the files. I've searched and searched but I can't find any info about this error. Not sure if this is helpful but the detailed error results read as follows: - Value cannot be null.

TOPIC STARTER Different error? | May 5, 2015 |
Hi Guillaume, Many thanks for your reply. The Knowledge Base article you referred me to seems to deal with a different error however (Value cannot be null. Parameter name: setup.LanguageDirection.TargetCulture). The parameter in the error message here is RootContainer. The target language is showing correctly as per the article you suggested. I am still at a loss! Thanks anyway, it's looking like I'll just have to muddle through as I am. No word from my client on ... See more Hi Guillaume, Many thanks for your reply.
