Impossible to export documents anymore

pprw
I cannot anymore export items (to BibLaTeX file, or BibTeX, or Zotero RDF, ...)

I recently delete my zotero folder (.mozilla/xxx/zotero) in order to solve another issue. This problem opens after this action. I assume zotero didn't recreate some important files.

I have this log when exporting :

What Can I do to fix it?

    Where did you install that Zotero from? 4.0.22.SOURCE is not an official release (and is not up to date anyway). Install Zotero from https://www.zotero.org/download/ and see if the issue persists.

    I installed zotero from a debian package (xul-ext-zotero) but it was obviously a bad idea. I did what you recommended (install zotero from the official website) and everything is back to normal.

    Thanks for your help.
