Zotero can't find available pdf from Springer even though when I open the link I have access

edited 3 days ago
Consider this article: https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s42113-025-00239-7

When I double click on my Zotero item entry, it opens it in the browser, and I have access to download it:

However, Zotero fails to find it:

My proxy is configured:

When I try an open access article from the same journal, no problem.

Whenever I run the request full text on the item above and it fails, I get "Error connecting to server. Check your Internet connection. " in the error console
