Report 1217350390

Since installing the beta version on Firefox 3.0.8 on Ubuntu 8.10, pdfs have not been indexed, and perhaps separately, zotero will sometimes stop saving records when I click on the icon in the URI bar. PDFs will not index when I try to instruct zotero to do it manually, and will fail with no sign.

Even when the translator fails, I can still make new records by using the drop-down and entering details manually.
  • Do you have the PDF indexing tools installed? Check the Search tab in Zotero Preferences.
  • Yep, version 3.02pl1 of both pdfinfo and pdftotext, apparently.
  • Just wanted to report that, at least insofar as indexing pdf files goes, the problem turned out to be that for some reason, file permissions were set incorrectly for pdfinfo-linux and pdftotext-linux, for some reason, possibly when I backed up my data. chmod +x ing them fixed it.
