When a translation file is uploaded to an Elucidat Project or when a Variation is created with a translation file, you may see a message indicating that there are errors in your file that need to be addressed.
When one or more errors are present in the file, the message will show some additional information explaining the type of error that has occurred. Here is a full list of possible errors and what they mean:
| Message | Explanation | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| You tried to upload an invalid file type of: "file type" | A file was uploaded that was not a CSV or XLIFF. | Upload an accepted file type (.csv or .xlf) |
| Please use xlf or csv only | A file was uploaded that was not a CSV or XLIFF. | Upload an accepted file type (.csv or .xlf) |
| This file does not seem to be valid XLIFF 1.2 | The file that was uploaded is not an accepted XLIFF file type. | Upload a correct XLIFF file type (.xlf) |
| Unfortunately we only support XLIFF 1.2 | The XLIFF file that was uploaded is not a supported XLIFF version. | Upload an XLIFF (.xlf) in a supported version (XLIFF 1.2) |
| This file does not seem to be valid CSV | The file that was uploaded is not an accepted CSV type. | Re-export and upload a CSV in an accepted type (for example, CSV UTF-8) |
| This file is not from the current Project | The file that was uploaded was exported from a different Project than the one it is being uploaded to. | Either upload the file into the correct Project or, export a new file from the current Project, translate the file and upload it into the same Project. If you're not sure which Project the file is from, you can find guidance in our CSV and XLIFF overviews. |
| Invalid HTML "__text__" on "__line__" | An HTML error has been identified. The message will show the text with the error and which line it can be found in your file. | Resolve the HTML error in the file. See below for guidance on this. |
| Invalid XLIFF on "__line__" | An XLIFF value error has been identified on a specific line in the file. | Resolve the XLIFF value error in the file. You may need to contact your translation vendor for this. |
| Invalid XLIFF value "__value__" for key "__key__" | An XLIFF value error has been identified for a specific part (key). | Resolve the XLIFF value error in the file. You may need to contact your translation vendor for this. |
| Caution: You can choose to upload the file without addressing the errors, however we do strongly recommend that the errors are resolved before uploading it as incorrect HTML can lead to unexpected behaviour in your new translated course. |
