 By using :class:`Symfony\\Bundle\\FrameworkBundle\\Command\\ContainerAwareCommand`
 as the base class for the command (instead of the more basic
 :class:`Symfony\\Component\\Console\\Command\\Command`), you have access to the
-service container. In other words, you have access to any configured service.

+However, due to the `container scopes </cookbook/service_container/scopes>`_ this

+service or any other service related to it, you'll get the following error:

+If you dig into the Translator component classes, you'll see that the ``request``
+service is required to get the locale into which the contents are translated::
+
+    // vendor/symfony/symfony/src/Symfony/Bundle/FrameworkBundle/Translation/Translator.php
+    public function getLocale()
+    {
+        if (null === $this->locale && $this->container->isScopeActive('request')

+        }
+
+        return $this->locale;
+    }
+
+Therefore, when using the ``translator`` service inside a command, you'll get the
+previous *"You cannot create a service of an inactive scope"* error message.
+The solution in this case is as easy as setting the locale value explicitly
+before translating contents::
+
+    protected function execute(InputInterface $input, OutputInterface $output)
+    {
+        $name = $input->getArgument('name');
+        $locale = $input->getArgument('locale');
+
+        $translator = $this->getContainer()->get('translator');
+        $translator->setLocale($locale);
+
+        if ($name) {
+            $output->writeln($translator->trans('Hello %name%!', array('%name%' => $name)));
+        } else {
+            $output->writeln($translator->trans('Hello!'));
+        }
+    }
+
+However for other services the solution might be more complex. You may even need
+to manually create a ``request`` service and then call the ``enterScope('request')``
+and the ``set('request', $request)`` methods.
