Copernicus translator: ACP works, ACPD doesn't

I'm running ZF + connector=4.0.17.1 + ZS=4.0.6-6 on debian. ZS>Preferences>Automatically check for updated translators is set, and I just now hit button=Update now. I do atmospheric modeling, so regularly refer to Copernicus pubs. When I browse to

the address bar icon indicates translator=Copernicus, and I was able to save to ZS. But when I browse to

the address bar icon indicates translator=DOI, and attempting to save gets error="Could Not Save Item". How to fix?

  • A translator fix is now up. Your version of Zotero will automatically update within 24hs, or you can update manually using the "Update Now" button in the "General" tab of the Zotero preferences.

    Any further problems let us know & thanks for reporting
  • @adamsmith: "thanks for reporting". Thanks for the prompt fix! Just one thing to add for future reference, regarding

    > Zotero will automatically update within 24hs, or you can update manually

    Just updating zotero standalone was no fix: the ACPD page's address bar icon still showed translator=DOI. But I then restarted firefox (actually iceweasel on debian) and ZS (since I have frequently noticed that restarting FF while ZS is running causes the "failure to communicate" error in the restarted FF), and was able to Save to Zotero the ACPD page.

    So for me (running ZF+ZS) the fix was:

    1. ZS: update translators
    2. ZS: shutdown
    3. FF: shutdown
    4. FF: restart
    5. ZS: restart

    How much of this was truly necessary, I dunno, but it worked.
