Confirmed
The bug
Using /trigger for a player who has no score for an objective (see MC-79255) shows the error message commands.trigger.invalidObjective:
Invalid trigger name [objective name]
This is pretty misleading and should instead be something like
The player [player name] has no score entry for the objective [objective name]
If this is no bug, tab-completing the objective argument on /trigger should not return invalid objectives.
How to reproduce
/scoreboard objectives add someObjective trigger /trigger someObjective set 1
Will print "Invalid trigger name someObjective" in chat. Note that trigger objectives that aren't enabled print a different message: "Trigger someObjective is not enabled". Giving the objective a value or enabling its trigger for the player will make it work:
/scoreboard players set @p someObjective 0 /trigger someObjective set 1
Will set someObjective to 1 for me.
