error in result (AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'group') #234

Mohammadwh · 2020-10-29T06:57:57Z

hi i use Python 3.6.9
and when i call translate have this error:

ssut · 2020-10-30T05:02:08Z

It seems the problem comes from such as network environment, rate limits. Could you provide your environment info, e.g. OS, ISP(your network provider), etc. Also please let me know whether it's okay from translate.google.com.

1e3m · 2020-10-30T09:30:25Z

I am getting this error too. It was starting 28 october.

Win8.1 last updated, Python version 3.6.6, googletrans 3.0.0,

laubil · 2020-10-30T09:34:17Z

same here.
googletrans 3.0.0, Python 3.8, Linux Ubuntu 20.04.

In a list of 10 words to translate, 2 or 3 would generate the error.
Threading and pausing (1s) improves the problem but does not suppress it.

Mohammadwh · 2020-10-30T10:01:17Z

i test it on ubuntu server and windows 10 but not work

ssut · 2020-10-30T13:33:36Z

Could you let me know your location and internet service provider? and did you check if it's working on translate.google.com? Because this library is not an official implementation I need you to check your network condition or elaborate on what's giving your problem so that I can confirm this issue and help you.

Russia, Rostov on Don, ISP: Megalink. translate.goole.com is working without problems.

sahil-gorivale · 2020-10-31T04:40:52Z

I'm also getting same issue.

pbienst · 2020-11-01T09:02:00Z

Note sure if it's related, but over on gTTS they have similar issues with accessing google translate, but then for text-to-speech. One user reported that switching from urllib.requests to requests fixed the issue:

pndurette/gTTS#226

It might be worthwhile experimenting with vanilla requests instead of httpx...

ssut · 2020-11-02T13:59:31Z

I've tried reproducing this several times but so far I don't think I can easily reproduce this in my environment (from the major ISPs in South Korea: Korea Telecom, SK Broadband, and U+.)

Python 3.8.5 (default, Jul 21 2020, 10:48:26)
[Clang 11.0.3 (clang-1103.0.32.62)] on darwin
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> from googletrans import Translator
>>> t = Translator()
>>> t.translate('asdf')
<googletrans.models.Translated object at 0x104596790>

However, I'm investigating this issue further right now and will get back to you shortly - I believe it's related to something strange happening with Google's anti-spamming work. If someone else has experienced similar or the same issues please submit to this issue with such details as ISPs, location, and whether it happens consistently at all or not.

Using it over a VPN, it has failed for me for servers in multiple countries over UDP. I'd rather not say specifics as to which ones. I added in try/except loop that makes it try a random new proxy if a query fails, but even so I can't seem to escape these failures. It works for a seemingly-random number of queries before failing (nowhere near 300, probably ~20 at the most). Using Ubuntu 20.04, Python 3.8.3, googletrans 3.0.0.

Thanks for your information. I will try testing on other networks using proxies.

I upgraded httpx to the latest version (in spite of pip complaining it's not compatible with py-googletrans), and the stability seems to be back to how it was before... Could be a coincidence though.

i test it
not work 😐

zz860808 · 2020-11-03T04:09:33Z

i also got this error right now.
i am a student from Taiwan. My ISP is TANet. And i try translate.goole.com on Chrome is okay without any problems.
thanks.

thanks.

But after i try it on my other computer with Linux Ubuntu 18.04 (never install the "googletrans"), it performed okay. So i think it might be banned by Google, and it'll be banned for a long time.

Dauflo · 2020-11-03T07:25:05Z

I'm actually having the same issue running googletrans inside a docker container. The error would stop all the processes of the container, but as soon as i restart the container, googletrans is not returning any error for the current process.
In my case, i don't think it can be a ban from Google, otherwise it couldn't not work when i restart my container

alainrouillon · 2020-11-03T07:55:24Z

Hi all,
We've been using py googletrans for a few weeks by now. Everything was going on ok, but it turned to go into "AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'group'" error since a few days.
I figured out that the token generation in gtoken.py was involved as it is not retrieved ok by requesting google. I tried to implement a retry to recall the _update() function until it provides a valid token. This solution does not work as it keeps stuck in the retry loop (i.e. it never gets a proper token ...).
Sure I would be interested in contributing to the solution, and/or get the issue solving if any.

I faced this behaviour as after a certain period of time a new request submit works fine ...

VOINTENT · 2020-11-03T10:34:21Z

This problem occurs if you create a Translator instance for each use of the request. This problem can be partially avoided by using only one instance of the class.

Thanks, it worked when using only one instance of the class.

vonblanc · 2020-11-04T11:59:12Z

Tried the one instance solution worked for a while but now it's back.

Worked for me. Quite interestingly, changing the service URL to translate.google.com worked on my PC but not on my Linux server. However, there upgrading httpx seems to have temporarily fixed it. :)

Poycodon9x · 2021-05-31T11:35:14Z

pip install google_trans_new
I have removed googletrans and replaced the state Cai now. It's working again

SuperZombi · 2021-05-31T14:12:41Z

pip install googletrans==4.0.0rc1
This is pre-release. It's working for me.
Author, publish this pre-release as main.

igormcsouza · 2021-06-02T13:23:29Z

Using Python 3.7 and googletrans==4.0.0rc1 worked like a charm for me! :D

danpaldev · 2021-06-09T03:56:45Z

This is still an issue. Use pip install googletrans==4.0.0rc1 and you will have no problems.

ghost · 2021-06-09T13:01:50Z

the issue is still present for bulk translations

liliana3186 · 2021-07-09T21:31:10Z

I have the same issue Using python 3.7.6 and googletrans==4.0.0rc1

aprknight · 2021-07-26T16:10:54Z

googletrans 3.0.0 which, at the time of writing, is the released version with Python 3.9.6, macOS 11.5, ISP is BT in the United Kingdom and the 'NoneType object has no attribute group...' issue is a problem for me.

It is obvious from the error trace that the problem lies in: RE_TKK.search(r.text) which is returning None.

Under what circumstances would it do that?

ValleSell · 2022-01-13T10:34:21Z

Could you explain how to do that with an example please?

memory4963 · 2022-03-30T13:47:51Z

I met this issue also, and I fixed it by removing the param "service_urls" when constructing the "Translator()"

from

translator = Translator(service_urls=[
       'translate.google.com',
       'translate.google.com.hk',
       'translate.google.co.kr',
     ])

to

translator = Translator()

hope this helps :)

Avazart · 2022-05-26T14:36:47Z

File "C:\Users\xxx\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python310\lib\site-packages\googletrans\gtoken.py", line 62, in _update
code = self.RE_TKK.search(r.text).group(1).replace('var ', '')
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'group'

Author used regex for parse html :(

Doesn't work for me even using only one instance.

MiKatre · 2022-06-20T10:11:44Z

What worked for me today was

pip uninstall googletrans==4.0.0-rc1

pip install googletrans==3.1.0a0

(solution from https://stackoverflow.com/a/69271089/7292383)

DSPerson · 2022-06-23T01:05:37Z

pip install googletrans==3.1.0a0
translator = Translator()
don't use Translator() service_urls parameter, it work

alessandrokr · 2022-10-29T21:40:41Z

I fixed it with with changing the the service_urls with the non web version:
service_urls = ["translate.googleapis.com"]

frannylac · 2023-02-07T04:54:34Z

translate.googleapis.com

this url was removed... returns 404

Python 3.12.2 (main, Feb 6 2024, 20:19:44) [Clang 15.0.0 (clang-1500.1.0.2.5)] on darwin
using googletrans==4.0.0rc1, works fine.
