Error while exporting Zotero Library

zudomishima

Hi,

So I have been trying to export my library and keep it updated (I use it as a reference manager for Obsidian), but it keeps showing the error "An error occurred while trying to export the selected file." I have tried uninstall-install, cleaning all cache and temp files from my MacOS, and even restarted my computer. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks :)

For problems with a plugin, you'll need to contact the plugin developer. (I assume you're referring to Better BibTeX here.)

I don't have any plugins installed, I rechecked.

dstillman

What do you mean by "keep it updated", though? That's a feature of Better BibTeX. Unless you mean you're doing that manually?

If you can reproduce this without any plugins installed, we'd want to see a Debug ID for reproducing this, and you should say what format you're using.

I used to use the plugin, although not anymore. Perhaps there's some error because of it? Maybe it wasn't removed properly?

I got this option (using Better CSL JSON)

Then when I export my library I get this:

Yes, you should either reinstall BBT or reset translators from the Advanced → Files and Folders section of the Zotero settings.

Error FIXED.

I followed your instructions; first reset the translators in Advanced settings and then downloaded the latest version of BBT and installed it, restarted Zotero once more and now export works.

Thank you!
