Upgrade to Firefox 11.0 breaks zotero

mattywhiplash
Hello,

I've just upgraded to:
Firefox 11.0 on Linux version 2.6.32-34-generic

This forced the zotero upgrade to 3.0.3.

I no longer get the zotero button on the browser pane and hot keys don't start zotero. I have followed the procedure in the trouble shooting guide and have the following errors of interest:

Timestamp: 16/03/12 10:31:59
Error: ZoteroPane is not defined

Any help on sorting out the error would be much appreciated!

Cheers,

    Have you tried reinstalling Zotero? We don't normally recommend that, since it doesn't usually do much, but this is a bizarre error that you shouldn't be getting.
  • mattywhiplash
    Yup.....

    I've tried uninstalling the add on and reinstalling from a fresh download. Still nothing :(
  • dstillman
    And you've tried disabling all other add-ons?
  • mattywhiplash
    I have now.....

    Still no change. I only have two other add-ons and 1 plugin so there isn't a lot to interfere......
  • mattywhiplash
    Found a solution....

    Complete removal of firefox followed by a fresh re-install from scratch.

    Seems to have magically cleared the problem :)

    Can you completely remove zotero without losing your library?
  • adamsmith
    yes (though you should always have a back-up) - but if this is about your problem in the other thread, you won't have to and it wouldn't help anyway.
  • n1kkystyx
    oh. What might help, then?

    I answered you in the other thread - if that doesn't help, start a new one.
