we can see the cause of the error :Spanish content is having extra <p>
tokens but they are empty .
After the alignment i observed these file and found that though the error
log was shown the content is
still present in aligned files.. see the same portion in aligned files...

Questions:
-> Does it  mean that the aligned files i have generated are not suitable
for training the model?
-> Can we modify the pre-precessing script to replace the empty paragraphs?


Thanks
