How can I find POEdit errors

Question

I'm getting duplicate message definition errors in POEdit and I cannot update from that catalog.

POEdit doesn't show details and the line numbers in the errors don't match.

How can I find what is wrong?

msgfmt -v -c /path/to/1input.po

msgfmt -v -c tr.po showed where the problems are. Thank you very much, accepted as the answer. – Forcefeed

How can you run this on Windows? – Harrod

@icc97, msgfmt.exe is located in Poedit\GettextTools\bin – Eucalyptus

perfect!! Just adding a tip, you need to specify the file when call this command e.j. msgfmt -v -c path/to/your/file – Docket

If you are running on windows 10, just use linux subsystem to run this command (gettext installed is needed) - worked for me. – Viper

Poedit uses gettext commands internally and bundles the appropriate binaries because it needs them, so there's no need to find them elsewhere. – Icbm
