There was an error starting Zotero
As of this morning I am unable to get my zotero standalone to start. The database lives on a shared partition on my dualboot windows 7/Ubuntu machine. I went through the start-up error page and obtained this from my terminal:
1423147909091 addons.manager WARN Exception calling callback: [Exception...

Am I reading that correctly as essentially a file permission problem on the drive? I am a bit stumped as to what happened here, I haven't touched anything relevant (and the only thing which I changed in Zotero was installing the better (bib)latex extention which surely can't have this kind of impact).
Anyone with ideas on things I should try?

adamsmithyes, you are reading that right. Is this from both OS?

FHeimburgeryes, or at least same error/impossible to start on the windows side, I forgot to run the jsconsole debug there. Might go and try that, but suspect it will tell us the same thing
