locate button doesn't work in 2.1.1

rcspencer
I just upgraded to 2.1.1 and am no longer able to utilize the locate function. This used to be in the info category, but it seems it has moved to just right of the search bar. when I click on this button, it appears to try to bring up a pulldown menu, but fails.

    Does this happen for any item, or only specific items? Can you provide a report ID after retriggering the issue?

    It happens for all items when I attempt to use the new locate button. This has occurred on two different computers. Here is the message I received from the error report.

    [JavaScript Error: "uncaught exception: [Exception... "Component returned failure code: 0x80004005 (NS_ERROR_FAILURE) [nsIURI.host]" nsresult: "0x80004005 (NS_ERROR_FAILURE)" location: "JS frame :: chrome://zotero/content/locateMenu.js :: _getURL :: line 368" data: no]"]

    This should be fixed for 2.1.2, but it almost certainly has something to do with your items. What is in the URL field?
  • rcspencer
    Good call. I imported most of these references from reference manager, and due to some glitch it imports a line similar to "PM:15771465" into the URL field. When that line is deleted, the proper pull down menu comes up.

    Thanks for the help!
