I have experienced this too. But *deleting* the glossary.zip file before saving
(of course, keep at least one backup!) seems to help.

I epirienced the same today. This is not funny.
Is there a fix ahead?

I can't sreproduce this on either my windows system or my linux system.

I need more information:
* when does this happen ?
* what system and JDK are MT being run on ?
* how are the products setup ?

if it reproducable for one of you, please attach any log files, and the glossary.zip

Attachment: MT5beta8b log file

i'm using Win98SE with JRE1.4. 
what exactly do you mean by "setup"? 

i didn't keep a copy of the corrupt glossary file. it is something around 40kB
in size. i'm not sure this log will help you, i may have deleted the log that
was created when the bug occurd. i don't remeber.

The MozillaTranslator component is moving to the Mozilla Localisations product.

for the record: i still get this with WinXPpro, JRE1.4.0_01, MT5.02.

it is possible that i had this problem due to an incorrect upgrade from one of
the MT5 beta versions. now i deleted everything, extracted the zip again with
the dummyfile, and it appears to save the strings correctly. if i have any other
problem in this subject, i'll post.
