Problems with Zotero-integration in Libre Office on Ubuntu 18.04

Hi there,
today I experienced problems with Zoteros LO integration on Ubuntu 18.04 which I wasn't able to solve. Trying to install the add-on resulted in following error message:

"/home/USER/.config/libreoffice/4/user/uno_packages/cache/Uno_packages/lu7742nen2zw.tmp_/Zotero_OpenOffice_Integration.oxt existiert nicht." (It says the oxt-file doesn't exist. But it's there.)

The error appeared both during the automatic and the manual installation.
I tried different versions of LibreOffice as well as Zotero - the most recent and a little older ones. Same result.
My workaround is now using an old notebook with an outdated Ubuntu, but Zotero and LO are working so I can do my thesis. But that's not a permanent solution. Anyone got ideas? Is this a Zotero problem or a LO problem?

thanks,
sys


  • That would be an LO problem. Deleting your LO user directory — or at least the cache directory — would be the main thing to try.
  • That worked, thanks a lot! :)
  • That worked to me: I deleted all the information in /home/qwerty/.config/libreoffice/4/user/uno_packages/cache/ and after that, worked the automatic installation
