Error during Diff

Post by JasperJay »

Hi,

I have a Lingo project that was translated (into German) in December 08. I have since worked on the source Flare project extensively for 3 months. I now need to do a diff to highlight all the changes, but when I do I get an 'Object reference not set to an instance of an object.' error at the point where it starts 'Computing differences...'.

I get the error if I do the diff using Lingo 1.5 or after I upgrade the project using Lingo 2.0.

What has happened to my project?

Please help as I need to start translating my document again, and I do not want to lose my already translated content.
Has anyone else had this issue? Do you know how to fix it?

I raised this as a bug 2 weeks ago but no answer is forthcoming.

i think this is something for the Lingo support team? did you raise a support request?
If you submit your bug feedback request here, the more likely it'll get fixed or included in a future release

Yes, eventually received a patch from the Lingo team which has allowed me to continue. Phew.

I do not know the details of what caused the problem.
