Dear Maintainer,

*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***

I've launched a simple trim function to remove blank spaces at the beginning
and the end of each cells. It runs like an infinite loop displaying "Please
Wait". Nothing else happens. Have to kill the server.

Openrefine 3.8.7 downloaded from openrefine.org, works well, as expected (on
the same datas of course).

Here's last lines of debug output. I hope they are relevant :

Hi,

thanks for the report.

Could you send me a sample of your data or tell me what data you are trying to
modify. Maybe steps to reproduce the problem. Is it specific to a certain data
type or a general issue? The more information the better.

Regards,

Markus

I have uploaded a new revision of openrefine, 3.8.7-2, a while ago and I
believe it fixes your problem. Apparently I forgot to link to the localizer.jar
which may explain the loop since I assume you were using the French
localization back then. Please let me know if the problem persists or if we can
close this issue.

Regards,

Markus
