Trying to package a glossary in Multiterm: "The parameter is incorrect" Thread poster: Claudia Alvis

Since I recently formatted my computer, I had several termbases backed up but not-yet loaded. I tried to load one of those termbases so I selected 'Load external database' and uploaded the termbase. Then I proceede to delete the original mdb file. The Termbase is working perfectly, I can see the terms and the Termbase catalog, but when I try to Package/Delete the Termbase, I get an error: The parameter is incorrect. I know I can export the terms as xml but I'd rather fix this proble... See more Since I recently formatted my computer, I had several termbases backed up but not-yet loaded.

I know I can export the terms as xml but I'd rather fix this problem. I've been trying to find anything in Talisma, ProZ and Google, but I can't see any mention of this error in Multiterm. Just a few days ago, I started getting a 'java.lang.NullPointerException' error but I fixed that by disabling the next-gen Java plug-in. Now I get this new problem. I have Multiterm 7.5. Any suggestions? Thanks. ▲ Collapse | | |

Any suggestions? In this case, I simply give up, I export as XML and I edit manually the MTMaster.mdb in order to delete the damaged termbase, then I delete the related files manually. I consider the MT termbases can't be repaired in a human way. Try to reorganize the termbase first. And make a backup. Cheers GG | | | Claudia Alvis Peru Local time: 05:21 Member Spanish + ...

Thank you Grzegorz, your post made me laugh out loud (although it probably wasn't meant to be funny) and I agree with you. Fortunately my databases aren't damaged yet, it's Multiterm that's damaged. I also deleted MultiTerm7dot.xml but I keep getting the parameter error. | | |

Fortunately my databases aren't damaged yet, it's Multiterm that's damaged. No, it's simply functionally disabled I also deleted MultiTerm7dot.xml but I keep getting the parameter error. It has no impact here. MultiTerm7dot.xml is used only in Word. BTW. You haven't switched to Vistaaaargh? Your access rights to MTMaster.mdb are sufficient (read/write)?
