Steps to reproduce:

1. click the zotero connector icon to save this paper (or other papers in this proceedings) in Zotero: https://link.springer.com/chapter/10.1007/978-3-031-66997-2_1

2. "✖ Full Text PDF" message is shown and PDF is not saved.

----

As far as I tested, this error occurs in any other papers in this proceedings (CICM 2024) but doesn't occur in other proceedings (including CICM 2023).

When I checked packets with Wireshark, an access to "/hasattachmentresolvers" endpoint happened, while this doesn't happen for papers in other proceedings.

This occurred in both Zotero 6 and 7.

I belong to two educational institution that provides access to this proceedings, but the error occurred for both of them.

I confirmed this in latest Chrome and Firefox.

This is a bit tricky -- the reason this fails is that Springer doesn't have individual PDFs for the chapters (as it does for CICM 2023, e.g.), just the whole conference volume for download. Zotero assumes the presence of the chapter PDF at the URL https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/978-3-031-66997-2_1.pdf (corresponding to the URL of the page you linked to), but that doesn't exist. Giving people the chapter only in generally seems vastly preferable to me, but I'd assume most people would want the whole book PDF when chapter download fails.

Maybe @AbeJellinek has thoughts on how to best handle this.
