I feel a discrepancy regarding the translations. Could you tell the difference between:
1) There is no getting along with him.
2) I can't get along with him.

I would say (1) is a rather objective sentence as in "it's physically impossible" whereas (2) is a subjective, personal statement.

I see both meanings along the German and Japanese translations.

Annotation:

This means something like "No matter what I (or we or you) do, he's hard to get along with, so it's similar to "I can't get along with him," but this one can refer to people in general and not just "I."
